LISBON, N.D. – Keep your children protected this season by saying, “Boo the Flu.” Sanford Children’s invites parents and their children to attend Boo to the Flu at Sanford Lisbon Clinic, 102 10th Ave. W., on Saturday, Oct. 10, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

The event aims to create a fun and positive experience for kids in the community ahead of the flu and spooky season. Children, ages 6 months to 18-years-old, are encouraged to wear their favorite costumes.

Appointments are encouraged, but walk-ins are welcome. Parents can call 701-683-2214 to schedule an appointment.

A flu vaccine can protect the public from getting sick and protect the people around them. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) recommend annual flu vaccines for everyone 6 months and older, especially those at higher risk of complications including pregnant women, older adults and young children.

Visit Sanfordhealth.org to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of vaccines and get answers to commonly asked questions.
