Schools across Mississippi are gearing up to start vaccinating students against the swine flu.
Clinton and Hinds County are among the many districts now sending home consent forms for parents who want their child to get the potentially life saving vaccine.
In Hinds, nurses from clinics in Jackson, Raymond and Terry are volunteering their time and will travel to schools throughout the district to vaccinate the kids for free.
Clinton will team up with Mississippi College nursing students to set up clinics in eight schools across the district.
Hinds teachers and staff are also eligible to get the vaccine while the mobile clinics are set up.
