School Is Back, And So Are The Germs

A recent study from Clorox found that the clothes kids wear to school are 28x germier than the average toilet seat.

With school back in session, more germs are getting into your house than ever before!

Thankfully, Rocket City Mobile IV’s Missile Defense drip can help keep those germs out of your home.

It’s loaded with Vitamin C, Glutathione, Zinc, and Vitamin D to help fight off germs and keep busy moms healthy!

Even better, they’ll send a nurse practitioner to your house to administer the IV from the comfort of your own home!

Kick the germs to the curb and book an appointment today!
