Influenza Vaccine Available for under-served through CDC Initiative

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will be providing adult influenza vaccines to states to increase influenza vaccine coverage in the United States as a critical part of COVID-19 response to work. Increasing adult influenza coverage will result in a decreased strain on the nation’s health care system.  This one-time initiative for the 2020-21 influenza seasons allowed states to order adult influenza vaccine with availability of the vaccine expected to be from late October-January. The priority for this initiative seeks to immunize adults with no health insurance, who are under-insured or have limited access to influenza vaccine.  There is no charge for the flu vaccine.

There will be a limited supply available during our VFC Clinic October 13^th from 2:00-5:00 p.m. and October 14^th from 9:00-Noon and 2:00-5:00 p.m. and by appointment only on October 19^th from 3:00-6:00 p.m. Please call ahead to Community Health at 712-364-7311.
