Vanderbilt Medical Students Host Flu Clinic

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Everyone's talking about H1N1 these days, but it's important to remember that the regular seasonal flu is a threat, too.

On Saturday medical and nursing students from Vanderbilt University administered free vaccines for the seasonal flu to people at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church.

The clinic was targeted toward those who are uninsured, or under insured from neighborhoods around Nolensville Pike.

Many said they wouldn't have gotten vaccinated if it weren't for the clinic.

"It's completely free, all they have to do is be here and we'll make sure to give them a form so they don't vaccinate again because some of the kids are getting vaccinated at school," said Vanderbilt Medical student, Gabriela Andrade.

The vaccine clinic was paid for with a grant from the One Hundred Oaks Foundation.
