Seasonal flu vaccine clinics for
4J employees and dependents
are coming soon!
A seasonal flu shot clinic for 4J employees and dependents was held on Tuesday, October 20. The clinics which were scheduled for
October 28 and November 5 have been postponed due to
vaccine supply problems causing delays in shipments. The seasonal flu shot clinics should be rescheduled soon and employees will be notified of the new dates.
Flu vaccination eligibility extends to:
- all active employees (even those who are not insurance-eligible due to less than half-time status)
- all insurance-eligible dependents of active insurance eligible employees, including those who have waived coverage
- all retirees and their dependents who are currently covered on the 4J insurance
- student teachers
- substitutes (licensed and classified)
Flu shot eligibility does not extend to:
- retirees who are no longer on the 4J insurance
- retirees' dependents who are not on the 4J coverage (even when the retiree is still covered)
In this case, "dependents" refers to spouses and domestic partners, as well as insurance-eligible children age 10 or over. The particular vaccine used at these clinics is not approved for children under age 10. All children 10–16 years of age must have a parent or guardian with them to be vaccinated.
