Flu shots available for veterans
The Butler VA Health Care System is offering flu vaccination clinics to veterans starting Monday, Sept. 19 at its New Castle Road campus and community locations.
According to a Thursday news release, flu shots are available to all veterans. Veterans currently enrolled at the Butler VA Health Care System should present their VA-issued health identification card at the vaccination site, and those not currently enrolled should present one form of ID and provide a copy of their military discharge to get a flu shot.
Non-veterans, including spouses and dependents of veterans who do not themselves have a documented history of military service, are not eligible for a flu shot from the Butler VA.
Appointments are not necessary.
