Flu Immunization for Schools
A flu immunization program can decrease the number of days teachers, staff and students miss due to illness. Absence due to sickness causes disruption in class schedule as teachers can not teach, students can not learn, and the learning process can not continue. Most importantly, ill teachers, staff and students can spread the disease, suffer pain, discomfort, and lose precious educational learning opportunities by not being in school.
The best way to minimize or avoid the flu is to get a yearly flu shot. The vaccine is usually very effective but needs to be repeated annually to protect against new strains of flu viruses. Offer an annual program to have your teachers, staff and students vaccinated every year against the flu. The benefits to your teachers, staff and students are that Passport Health comes to your school, before classes or after school hours to administer the flu shots. No travel time for them, no class disruptions – we come to you!
