Nassau County Clerk Maureen O’Connell is pleased to announce the Senior Citizen Flu Shot program, which offers flu shots with no out of pocket expenses for senior citizens (residents 60 and over), will be held on Monday, November 7, 2011 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at American Legion Post No. 144, 730 Willis Avenue, Williston Park, New York.  Appointments are necessary and can be made by calling 571-2660.

The program is co-sponsored by Nassau County Clerk Maureen O’Connell, the Villages of East Williston and Williston Park, the American Legion Post No. 144 and the Chamber of Commerce of the Willistons.  This program is also provided with the generous support of North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System.

Residents over 60 are particularly vulnerable to complications arising from the flu virus and all seniors of the Willistons, Albertson, Mineola, Garden City Park, Garden City, Carle Place, and neighboring communities are encouraged to participate.  Anyone interested in being vaccinated should be sure to schedule an appointment, as they are required due to a limited supply of vaccine.  Individuals with scheduled appointments need to bring their Medicare or other insurance provider card(s).

Appointments are required and can be made by calling (516) 571-2660
