SOMERVILLE, MA – The cold and flu season is approaching, which means it's time for the annual flu vaccination clinics offered by the Somerville City Department of Health and Social Services. Clinics offer free flu shots to residents of Somerville aged four and over (children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian). They will be held from September 20, 2018, at various times and places in the community, until the stockpile of vaccines in the city runs out. Due to the limited supply and availability of nurses, vaccines will be available only during the clinic's official hours.
The clinics will be organized as follows until the stocks of vaccines are exhausted:
