Postponement of Public Flu Clinics

 
Ithaca, N.Y. 14850 (September 25, 2009) – The Tompkins County Health Department (TCHD) has not received its complete order of seasonal flu vaccine as of today.  As a result, clinics scheduled for the period of September 28 – October 7 are postponed.

We expect to receive our vaccine order and are working with our supplier to confirm delivery dates.  We will re-schedule clinic dates once we have replenished our supply.  We apologize for any inconvenience. 

All current scheduled appointments, by site, will be maintained.  It will not be necessary to make a new appointment.  Once new clinic dates and times are established we will issue a press release with that information.  You may change your appointment, if necessary, once the new schedule is established.

For updated information about influenza vaccination clinics check our Flu Hotline at 274-6609 or go to the Tompkins County Health Department website: www.tompkins-co.org/health
