|
By Chris Michlewicz
Thousands of Douglas County School District families are anticipating the first of four free H1N1 vaccination clinics at local schools.
ThunderRidge High School, a school hit hard by a suspected H1N1 virus, will serve as the site for the first flu shot clinic at 9 a.m. Nov. 7. The next flu shot clinic will be from 4-8 p.m. Nov. 9 at Legend High School in Parker, with another on the following day at the same times at Mountain Ridge Middle School in Highlands Ranch. The final flu shot clinic is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Nov. 21 at Castle View High School in Castle Rock.
The school district received 1,500 responses to an online survey and as of Oct. 27, respondents indicated that they would be requesting 4,000 vaccinations.
Early last month, the Douglas County School District was reporting absence rates of between 20 and 30 percent at as many as 60 schools.
