Ends: November 02, 2023
Health Services will be offering Influenza and Covid Vaccine Immunization Pods on different days and locations from October 16 to November 2, 2023.
Patients will have the options of receiving the standard Fluzone Quadrivalent or the Fluzone High-Dose Quadrivalent. The High-Dose Quadrivalent is recommended for those aged 65+ and contains four times the antigen, the part of the vaccine that helps your body build up protection against flu viruses. With the higher dose of antigen in the vaccine, people 65 years and older have a better immune response to vaccination, and therefore, better protection against flu.
Covid vaccines will also be available. It is recommended that both vaccines be co-administered.
Here is the schedule for 2023 Vaccine Immunization Pods:
-Oct 16 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 P.M. @ Office for the Aging
