Flu clinic coming to North Windy Ridge

The Buncombe County Department of Health would like for everyone to get a flu shot wherever it is most convenient for them. To help make that a little easier, the Department of Health, in partnership with Maxim Healthcare, is taking flu clinics to seven schools throughout the county. Because of this, the Department of Health will NOT have a flu clinic at the mall this year. Flu vaccine clinics, for anyone 6 months of age and above, will be held from 4:00 – 7:00 pm at the following locations: October 10 Owen Middle School October 11 AC Reynolds High School October 12 TC Roberson High School October 13 Asheville Middle School October 17 North Windy Ridge October 18 Enka Middle School October 19 Erwin High School Flu shots will be $24, and flu mist will be available for $29. Payment may be made by cash or check; however credit cards may not be used. Most insurance carriers will be accepted, including Medicaid and Medicare Part B, if the cards are presented. Children through 18 years of age, who are not covered by insurance, may qualify for a flu shot at no cost.
