ALL PATIENTS WHO HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED A FLU SHOT:
Are you
interested in getting a flu shot this year for added protection against influenza, including pneumonia? If you have NOT already received your flu shot, you may be a candidate to participate in
a short (6-month) Pfizer Flu Vaccine Study in which all participants will receive a FREE flu shot and are compensated for doing so. If you are 65 and over and are not currently
participating in any other clinical trial, you may be a candidate. Enrollment will begin the week of 10/24/22. For patients age 18-64, enrollment will begin on ~ November 15, 2022.
There are NO PLACEBO arms to this trial; therefore, you are guaranteed to receive either the standard quadrivalent flu shot or the new modified RNA Pfizer flu shot (same "ingredients," just
"packaged/created" differently).
Patients do
not need to be patients of WSFP in order to participate.
If
interested, please forward your name to Dr. Harker or call him at 717-620-2500, Ext. 110. You may also send a message to Dr. Harker through the patient portal.
Thank
you.
