Seasonal Flu Vaccine Clinic Finder
There are no seasonal flu vaccine clinics scheduled.
Important Update about Seasonal Flu Vaccine Availability
Seasonal flu vaccine is limited and may not be available in all areas of the state. As a result, there will be fewer public clinics as existing supplies of vaccine are administered.
Seasonal flu tends to arrive later in the winter, and we expect vaccine to become available as the season progresses. When more is available, we do recommend people get vaccinated.
People with special health concerns should contact their health care provider to discuss what options may be available.
Take everyday precautions to help keep illness from spreading:
- Wash your hands often and well
- Cover your cough when you cough or sneeze
- Stay home from work or school and away from others when you are sick – for at least 24 hours after your fever has gone.
