Influenza vaccination clinics will begin to roll throughout the region starting Monday, October 17, 2022. This is the first year both influenza and COVID-19 will be circulating broadly within our communities at the same time. That’s because for the last couple of years, cases of the flu were rare due to the widespread use of COVID-19 prevention measures such as masking and social distancing.
