PTA Influenza Vaccine – Vaccine Shoot
We plan to schedule an optional influenza vaccine clinic here at BIS on Friday, November 5, 2021, by BIC CLINIC. It takes up to 2 weeks to be protected from influenza after receiving the vaccine so we want to give everyone a chance to get the vaccine now and be protected before the holiday break begins. It will be available to anyone in our community: staff, teachers, parents, and students. Please click here to sign up ASAP as the clinic needs to order enough vaccines by Tuesday, October 2nd, 2021.
Details
Time: 8:00 am – 2:00 pm, next Friday, November 5th
Location: BIS Tennis Court
Cost : 400.000 IDR
Requirements: Signed consent form (available in the front office). A parent or guardian must be present for any primary students to receive the vaccine. Secondary students can receive the vaccine with a consent form only. Please bring cash payment to school that day.
The vaccine being given is the Vaxigrip Tetra, made by Sanofi pharmaceuticals (France). It is a quadrivalent vaccine that contains 4 types of influenza Viruses: Influenza type A (H3N2&H1N1) and Influenza Type B (Victoria and Yamagata). This is not a live vaccine and therefore it is not possible to get the flu from the flu vaccine. More information about vaccines and influenza is attached below.
