Johnny got his flu shot!

Thanks to Amy and Steve from MedPro Pharmacy in Melissa for coming in Monday morning and giving everyone their seasonal flu shots. Johnny had his done on the air and got a very cool Scooby Doo Band-Aid. He said it didn't hurt at all.

The Centers for Disease Control say the following people should get the shot.

They are either people who are at high risk of having serious seasonal flu-related complications or people who live with or care for those at high risk for serious seasonal flu-related complications.

People who should get the seasonal vaccine each year are:
