Influenza threatens the health of millions of people each year. With flu season right around the corner, it's never too early to get vaccinated.

The V.A. Clinics in Texarkana and Shreveport are offering flu shots for veterans throughout the fall. At the outpatient clinic in Texarkana, vaccinations are given each Wednesday from 1-3PM with no appointment necessary. The flu shots will be available through December 16.
