I'm pretty sure the second to last sentence should say "...and people between 24 and 64 who are high risk." Normally, a typo wouldn't be a big deal but this one could cause someone not paying attention to panic a bit if they think they are at a high risk and they're not. You might also want to list the common high risk factors so the clinic doesn't get a ton of people showing up who think they are high risk and aren't.
