Do not let financial constraints keep you from getting a flu vaccine.
The Northern Kentucky Health Department is offering two types of flu vaccines for free.
Tri-Staters should make an appointment at one of the four county health centers. Each center is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and one Tuesday evening per month.
The centers are as follows:
- Boone County Health Center, 7505 Burlington Pike, Florence, Ky., 859.363.2060
- Campbell County Health Center, 1098 Monmouth St., Newport, Ky., 859.431.1704
- Grant County Health Center, 234 Barnes Road, Williamstown, Ky., 859.824.5074
- Kenton County Health Center, 2002 Madison Ave., Covington, Ky., 859.431.3345
Local health officials say flu activity in northern Kentucky and nationwide has been sporadic so far this season, with only 25 cases reported in Boone, Campbell, Grant and Kenton Counties to date. However, flu cases typically increase and peak February and March.
