“This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s extremely important to protect yourself from the flu,” Bennett said. “Increasing the number of people who are vaccinated can help reduce the number of flu illnesses, hospitalizations and deaths. By pulling together, we can lessen the strain on our hospitals and health care workers this flu season and save lives.”

The clinic will be held outdoors in a drive-up format to allow appropriate social distancing. Masks will still be required, and safety precautions will be in place to promote a safe and healthy environment for everyone. Participants are required to bring their insurance card and photo ID to receive a flu shot.
