Paris, TN – The Henry County Health Department is offering free vaccines this month for children entering seventh grade. The clinics come following passage of increased vaccine requirements. The first clinic is today from 3:30 to 6 PM, with subsequent ones August 12, 19, and 26. Parents must bring a current shot record. Children in preschool, kindergarten, and seventh grade who don't receive the new standard immunizations will not be allowed to attend school. Because this is the first year, school officials have extended a grace period through October 1.
