Flu season is coming! The Pasadena Public Health Department will sponsor a free flu shot clinic Wednesday, Nov. 5, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Pasadena Senior Center, 85 E. Holly St.
The clinic is open to the public. Everyone is invited to protect themselves, loved ones over 6 months of age and caregivers by making an advance appointment at the Welcome Desk or calling (626) 795-4331.
Responsible for 200,000 hospitalizations and 36,000 deaths nationwide each year, influenza (flu) is caused by a virus that affects the entire body and for some may cause pneumonia, dehydration and other serious complications, especially senior citizens, very young children and people with serious health conditions.
Founded in 1959, the Pasadena Senior Center is an independent, nonprofit organization that offers recreational, educational, wellness and social services to people ages 50 and over in a friendly environment. Services are also provided for frail, low-income and homebound seniors.
