Vaccination Administration November 8th 2019

Getting yourself and your child a flu vaccine is always a good idea and doing it together is a great way to help them overcome their fears!

On Friday November 8th, Dr. Gesualdo will be administering the flu vaccine at his office (Via Fonteiana, 162 Monteverde) from 3pm -530p . The vaccine called Vaxigrip Tetra can be purchased at any pharmacy including the Murino Pharmacy (https://goo.gl/maps/LjNdNunJ9tkuD7qP9) who has ordered batches for his patients. The pharmacy will be open in the morning until 1pm and in the afternoon from 4pm onwards.

The flu vaccine can be administered from 6 months of age onward. In Italy it is recommended for children who are at high risk of developing a severe form of the flu (such as children with chronic conditions, asthma, diabetes, babies born preterm etc.) However, the vaccine offers protection from the flu also for children and adults who are not high risk, which is why in many countries the vaccine is recommended for the whole population. On this occasion also parents can receive the vaccine.

Places are limited, so those interested can send an email to f.gesualdo@gmail.com.
