Tetanus Shots 

The UTMB Montgomery County Health Department will offer tetanus shots to residents at 701 E. Davis (105 W) in Conroe from 8 – 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Tetanus has long been identified as a top health concern for anyone working in disaster recovery areas.  Protect yourself and your family from tetanus by getting a tetanus shot now if you have not received one in the last 10 years. Shots cost $10 and are available to all individuals, regardless of insurance or residency status.

Pregnant women who receive services at UTMB

UTMB patients that would normally deliver babies in Galveston should report to the Clear Lake Regional Medical Center, 281-332-2511. If patients cannot go to Clear Lake, they may report to the LBJ Hospital in Houston, 713-566-5000. For questions or directions to medical centers, call Rebecca Ewah at 936-355-5837.

Mosquitoes 

Due to the aftermath of Hurricane Ike, the UTMB Montgomery County Health Department cautions residents that mosquito activity may be increasing in some areas.  The combination of storm debris and standing water left behind produces additional mosquito breeding sites and increases the risk of exposure to diseases including West Nile Virus.
Eliminate mosquito-breeding habitats from your property:

·                                                                        Do not feed the storm drains.  Sweep up lawn clippings, leaves and tree limbs from sidewalks and driveways.

·                              Empty any containers that can hold water such as flowerpots, tires, buckets and other outdoor containers.

·                              Keep rain gutters clear and draining.
