This year DHEC is offering both the flu shot and the flu nasal spray. It is important that all children get vaccinated every year. There will be no cost to you or your child for the flu vaccine/nasal spray at school. If applicable, payment from Medicaid will be made to DHEC on your behalf.
If you would like your child to get a flu vaccine or flu nasal spray at school: 1. Go to https://apps.dhec.sc.gov/health/SCIAPPS/Public/SLVCValidate
using your smartphone, computer, or tablet to access the link.
2. Enter the validation code for your child’s school listed below.
3. Complete the online consent and click “submit.”
If your child is under the age of 9, he or she may need to get a second flu vaccine or flu nasal spray for the best protection. You will be notified if your child will need a second flu vaccine or flu nasal spray.
