HAMPTON, Va. - The Riverside Health System will host several free flu and COVID-19 vaccination clinics through the end of September and the month of October.
The drive-thru and walk-up clinics will allow patients 12 and older to receive the flu and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines at the same time, with one in each arm. Second and third doses of the COVID-19 will also be included with proof of prior vaccination.
COVID-19 booster shots are also available to those 65 and older and those at risk of severe illness, including healthcare workers. Anyone eligible may be given a single Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine booster dose at least six months after the first two doses to provide additional immunity with proof of prior vaccination.
Masking will be required at all times at the clinic, and temperature checks and safety screenings will be required before patients receive a flu shot.
