Seasonal flu vaccines will be available starting Oct. 1 at the Bates County Health Center, located at 501 N. Orange street in Butler. The Centers for Disease Control now recommends that everyone age six and older get a yearly flu shot. Pregnant women will need to present a written statement from their physician in order to receive the vaccine; if you have questions regarding the vaccine due to pre-existing health issues, contact your physician.
The Health Center can bill Medicare Part B for those with that coverage, otherwise the cost will be $20. For other information you may contact the health center at 660-679-6108.
