Free/ Low cost Health Clinic's
During this year's flu season, Californians in the Los Angeles area will have service to several free clinics available. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2008), "Every year in the United States, on average: 5% to 20% of the population gets the flu. More than 200,000 people are hospitalized from flu complications; and about 36,000 people die from flu". Children, the elderly, pregnant women and individuals with certain health conditions are at a higher risk for serious flu complications. So I wanted to find some information regarding free/ low cost care.
