(PLACERVILLE, CA) – The El Dorado County Health and Human Services Agency, Public Health Division, has scheduled its annual, no cost community flu vaccine clinics during the months of October and November for the upcoming respiratory virus season. Seasonal flu vaccine will be administered in shot (injection) form only. Residents can drop in to receive their flu shot during the times provided below, as appointments are not needed.

 

“The flu vaccine is a key tool in preventing all people from getting the influenza virus. For certain groups—including seniors, pregnant individuals, children, and people with chronic health issues—vaccination is even more critical because it can help prevent life-threatening complications that can occur when these sensitive groups’ immune systems become compromised by the flu,” said Dr. Melody Law, El Dorado County Public Health Officer. “We offer these flu clinics annually at this time because flu season begins in October, and it is best to get vaccinated as early in the season as possible for optimal protection.”
