Protect Your Child
Against COVID-19
|
|
COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for everyone
six months and older. Getting vaccinated means
your child can get back to sports, theatre, camps & more.
It also protects their friends, family, school staff, teachers and anyone else that they are around who
are at increased risk for severe COVID-19 illness.

There are many myths about the flu, but the fact remains that it’s a serious respiratory illness that
is easily spread from person to person. Everyone 6 months and older should get their annual flu shot in September or October to fight off the flu which usually occurs from December through March.
