Seasonal influenza vaccine will be available in nasal mist and flu shot forms at the clinics.

Shot are recommended for people 6 months of age or older. In addition to the flu vaccine, the newly recommended pneumococcal vaccine for seniors called PCV 13 (which protects against pneumonia), will also be available at the flu clinics for those who medically qualify.
