Jazz Up Your Flu Shot
On Thursday, December 12, professional jazz singer and nurse Nanci Zhang will be administering flu shots for the public.
Hosted at Three Muses bar on Frenchman Street, flu shots will be dispensed from 6 p.m. until 10 p.m. Presented by the New Orleans Health Department's Vax & Go Campaign, the rise of flu cases and flu-related illnesses can be combated with a quick poke and pinch to keep you, your family, and the Greater New Orleans community healthy this holiday season.
An Important Event
Vaccines aren't always fun to receive; however, Nurse Nanci's good attitude and catchy jazz music will keep patients relaxed and comfortable, ensuring that the experience is not only quick but also enjoyable! Getting a flu shot not only prevents the rise of flu-cases but also helps to protect those who are immunocompromised or unable to receive the vaccine.
Being sick during the holiday seasons is the worst. With more time-spent indoors, increased gathering with friends and family, and holiday travel, there is more of a risk for getting sick and spreading that to others you know and love. Visiting Nurse Nanci on Thursday, December 12 is easy—go after work, after dinner, or before bed, and quickly get your flu shot before continuing with your evening. Keeping your friends and family safe and healthy is a great gift to give during the holiday season.
Similarly, the New Orleans Health Department's Vax & Go Campaign is encouraging citizens to receive their COVID-19 booster as the COVID-cases rise this December. Available with Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance, local pharmacies offer the vaccine and more information regarding covid boosters can be found here.
Flu Shots and Jazz with Nurse Nanci combines a unique aspect of New Orleans culture with an important healthy and safety practice. Get healthy the Big Easy way with the experienced Nurse Nanci and enjoy live jazz music for free this December.
