Help Fight the Flu

/

The County is offering free influenza vaccinations to County employees at various worksites beginning Sept. 19.   

View the schedule and make an appointment now. Appointments are highly encouraged.  

In addition, find information on Kaiser Permanente and UnitedHealthcare flu shot events on the schedule. 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a yearly flu vaccine as the first and most important step in protecting against flu viruses.  

In addition to getting vaccinated, people should also do the following to avoid getting sick: 

  • Wash hands thoroughly and often 

  • Use hand sanitizers 

  • Stay away from sick people 

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth 

  • Clean commonly touched surfaces 

  • If you are sick, stay home and avoid contact with others 

Please note:  Appointments at secured locations are limited to staff with access to the work site. (This includes Edgemoor, the Psychiatric Hospital and Sheriff Department locations.)
