Thursday, November 9, 2000 North Syracuse Rotary Club receives grant for shot education program article by Michelle Hunter, Syracuse Newspaper The money will be used to boost immunization levels in the community.

The North Syracuse Rotary Club will receive a $1,000 matching grant to jump start its "Save Lives, Immunize" campaign. The program was created to use fliers, word of mouth, television -- anything to let seniors know about eh importance of influenza and pneumonia vaccinations.

"It's basically an education program," said Elton H. Cadogan, secretary of the club. "We want to promote the need for this in our area, so we're piggybacking on the county."

The money comes from the Rotary Foundation Blane Community Immunization Grant, which was established about a year ago. The program aims to help Rotary clubs boost immunization levels in their communities.

There are about 20,000 deaths a year from pneumonia. Quite a few of those cases started out as influenza, according to Dr. Mark Johnston, medical director of the Onondaga County Health Department. "The older you are, the greater your risk of dying from pneumonia," Johnston said.

Because of a weakened immune system in some seniors, the vaccinations are not 100 percent effective in preventing the flue. However, Johnston said it is still important for seniors to get immunized because they will be less likely to develop those deadly complications.

Members of the North Syracuse Rotary Club have already begun sending out advertisements to local newspapers and mailing fliers to some senior residential centers. Those fliers have educational information about immunizations and a list of the dates and locations of future flu-shot clinics.

"We would like to put a banner across the central area of Main Street in North Syracuse indicating 'Save Lives, Immunize'," Cadogan said.

For more information about upcoming flu-shot clinics, call the American Lung Association of Central New York at 422-6142 or the Visiting Nurse Association of Central New York at 477-9288.
