MACOMB, IL -- Before the nasty respiratory flu bug begins to make its rounds, Western Illinois University employees and retirees can help ward off the flu by taking advantage of a free flu shot clinic Wednesday, Oct. 14 on the WIU-Macomb campus.

The McDonough County Health Department will offer a seasonal flu shot clinic at no cost for Western employees from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. in the University Union Heritage Room.
Participants will need to present state-issued health insurance ID card to obtain a shot, which will be administered as long as supplies last. A limited number of pneumonia 23 shots will be available to those who qualify. The pneumonia shot is $80 (cash or check).

For those employees who cannot attend the Oct. 14 flu shot clinic, contact the McDonough County Health Department to schedule an appointment.
