Fight the Flu Vaccine Clinic

November 06, 2024

Riverside Health System is proud to announce it will host several free clinics throughout the region to further promote both the High Dose (HD) and standard flu vaccination. These drive-thru clinics will allow patients 9 and older to receive the flu vaccine.

Patients who are sick with any of the following symptoms shouldn't attend a clinic:

  • Fever (greater than 100.4)
  • New onset cough
  • Sore throat
  • Chills
  • New loss of taste or smell
  • Diarrhea
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Congestion or runny nose not related to allergies

Riverside is committed to caring for the community and encourages any resident not yet vaccinated to stop by one of these clinics in order to help improve health outcomes throughout the region. Getting vaccinated before flu activity begins helps protect once flu season starts. The Flu Vaccine will take roughly two weeks to provide full protection to your immune system.

A drive-thru clinic will be held at Charlie W. & Golden Bethune Hill Community Health Clinic on Wednesday, November 6, 2024 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Charlie W. & Golden Bethune Hill Community Health Clinic
727 – 25th Street
Newport News, VA 23607

While supplies last and no appointment needed.

For more information please contact Riverside Nurse at 757-595-6363 or 800-675-6368 or visit riversideonline.com/flu.
