From now until December, travelers at Minneapolis-St. Paul International (MSP) will be able to get their flu shots.
“Flu costs Americans an estimated $3B or more each year in medical fees and indirect expenses such as missed work,” says Jeff Hamiel, executive director of the Metropolitan Airports Commission. “Making vaccinations available at the airport ensures that even the busiest travelers can take steps to stay healthy and productive.”
The shots, which cover seasonal and H1N1 influenza, are being provided by Atlanta, Ga.-based AeroClinic Inc. Board-certified health professionals administer the vaccines, which cost $35.
In Terminal 1, the injections are available from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday. Stations can be found near Security Checkpoint 5 in the mall and across from Gate C2.
In Terminal 2, travelers can get their vaccines from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Thursday across from Gate H7.
