HealthLinc centers throughout Northern Indiana are offering no and low-cost flu shots to their patients throughout flu season while supplies last.  Flu shots will be available at no cost to any HealthLinc patient who any type of appointment already scheduled. For those HealthLinc patients that do not have an appointment already scheduled, the cost for a flu shot is $20.  HealthLinc has clinics located in East Chicago, Valparaiso, Knox, Michigan City, South Bend (IUSB Campus), and Mishawaka.
“The health of our community and patients is of the utmost importance to us,” states HealthLinc CEO Beth Wrobel. “We want to give our patients a head start by providing flu shots at little or no-cost. The flu vaccination can help you from contracting influenza and decrease your symptoms if you do get sick.  The CDC recommends an annual flu shot for everyone six months or older. It takes two weeks after vaccination for protection to set in. For more information about the flu shot program, contact Cecilia Reyes (219) 413-5100 ext. 2966 or creyes@healthlincchc.org
