Flu Vaccine Shots

Subject: Flu shots
I have had a couple of retired officers saying that when they called the
clinic, Health Designs, for an appointment for a flu shot
They were asked, “Are you over 65 yrs old”, and they were over 65 yrs,     
to call back later to make an appointment. They had no vaccine.

I notified Alex Perez and Henry Trevino about members being told by the
Health Care Clinics they could not get a Flu shot. Ask them to check into it.

Response was Quick from our Police and Fire Health Rep’s.

Subject: Flu shots
Armando, I followed up with James at the Health Fund and he checked on the
issue of Flu shots at the Health Clinics.
We found out the clinics ran out of the vaccine for the retirees over 65,
but have the regular flu vaccine for those retirees under 65 years of age.

The CDC recommends that people over the age 65 receive the extra strength
flu vaccine
which is the vaccine that the clinics ran out of.
They did not receive the Full Shipment for the extra strength vaccine.
They are waiting for the next shipment to come in hopefully within the next week.
If retirees over the age of 65 call in, the clinic’s will take their names
and call them back when the extra strength vaccines arrives.
The Clinic does not want to make the appointments when they don’t know when
the vaccine will be in.
We ask the retirees to be patient and we will get back with them as soon as
we can.
Thanks, Alex Perez – Police Health Benefit Trustee
