After completing several public clinics, the Health Department has compiled some tips for residents attending future clinics:
  • Prepare to expose the uppermost part of your arm, near the shoulder.
  • Medicare cards are not required.
  • When bringing a child for their booster, if possible, please bring their vaccination card with the previous dosage information.
  • Vaccinations are free of charge.
  • People with allergies to eggs should not receive the vaccine.
  • Clinics serve hundreds of people, and the staff does their best to get everyone in and out in a timely manner.
  • Please allow at least 15 minutes for your visit.
