SSM Health says it is already treating flu patients and is holding drive-thru flu-shot clinics every Saturday through Oct. 24 at four St. Louis-area locations — South County, North County (Ferguson), Central/City, and O’Fallon — First Alert 4 reports. Shots are for anyone 6 months and older; insurance and self-pay accepted.
