Kitsap Public Health District partners with City of Poulsbo for free drive-thru flu vaccine clinic Oct. 16
Thank you to the City of Poulsbo for coordinating a drive-thru flu vaccine clinic!
The Poulsbo Rite Aid Pharmacy and Kitsap Public Health District will hold a drive-thru flu vaccine event at Poulsbo City Hall from noon to 6 p.m. Friday, October 16. Look for the clinic on 3rd street on the rear side of City Hall, which is located at 200 Moe St. NE.
This is a great way to get a flu vaccine without leaving the comfort of your car. No reservations are needed. All are welcome, with or without insurance (if you have insurance, be sure to bring your card).
You can find other vaccine locations at vaccinefinder.org.
It is more important than ever to get a flu vaccine this year. The Washington State Department of Health recommends a yearly flu vaccine for everyone aged six-months and older, including pregnant and nursing women. If you are 65 or older, talk to your provider about flu vaccine and other important vaccines for your age group.
We may not have a vaccine yet for COVID-19, but we DO have a vaccine for flu. The flu vaccine can keep you from getting sick with flu during the COVID-19 pandemic. We can all do our part to prevent illness and hospitalizations caused by flu. This will help save healthcare resources for COVID-19 response in our communities.
