THE FOLLOWING IS A LAKEVIEW COLLEGE OF NURSING RELEASE
DANVILLE, IL (09/15/2025) Lakeview College of Nursing, in partnership with the Vermilion County Health Department, will host a Drive-Thru Flu Clinic on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m.
The clinic will take place in the parking lot east of Lakeview College of Nursing at 903 N. Logan Ave., Danville, IL. The clinic is open to the public and aims to make it simple and accessible for community members to protect themselves during the flu season, without leaving their vehicles.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone 6 months and older receive a flu shot every season to protect against the flu. The flu vaccine prevents millions of illnesses and flu-related doctor visits each year.
Dr. Gina Brassard, Dean of Nursing at Lakeview College of Nursing, said, “We are proud to support the Student Government Association in hosting this year’s Flu Clinic. Preventative care is a vital part of public health, and this initiative reflects our students’ commitment to keeping our campus and community healthy. I encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to protect themselves and those around them.”
Adult flu shots at the clinic will cost $43 for those 19 years of age or older. The Health Department will bill Medicare, Medicaid, state employee health plans, and most private insurance plans for adult flu shots. Individuals should be prepared to present proof of these types of coverage at the time of vaccination.
Cash and checks are acceptable payment options. The Health Department can accept credit and debit card payments for vaccinations, but the department charges users a small service fee for the convenience.
The Vermilion County Health Department encourages everyone to take preventative measures to decrease the spread of germs this flu season.
