SUB]ECT: Use of Mt. Diablo Unified School District Facilities for flu clinics
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Wendel Brunner, M.D.) to submit an
Application/Permit and hold harnlless agreement with Mt. Diablo Unified School District for the Health
Services Department's Public Health Division Immunization Program for the use of facilities for flu
immunization clinics, for the period from November 1, 2007 through February 28, 2008.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
The Health Services Department's Public Health Division Immunization Program will administer free flu
vaccines at selected Mt. Diablo Unified School District facilities. The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention has recommended that any person with a chronic illness including asthma should get a flu
vaccine. In addition, all persons, including school aged children, who want to reduce the risk of becoming
ill with influenza or of transmitting influenza to others, are recommended to get flu vaccine as well. By
offering vaccine at school locations, school-aged children and their families are more likely to receive the
vaccine and prevent transmission of influenza to younger sibling and elderly grandparents. We will also be
offering the nasal spray flu vaccine and the inactivated flu shot.
