CANANDAIGUA – UR Medicine Thompson Health will hold a walk-in flu clinic on Friday, November 25 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Canandaigua Emergency Squad, 233 North Pearl Street.
Administered to those 9 and older at this clinic, the standard 2022-2023 vaccine provides protection against four flu virus strains. There also is a high-dose flu vaccine for those 65 and older. This contains additional antigen designed to create a stronger immune response for the recipient. It is available in limited quantities, while supplies last.
Community members are asked to please wear masks to the clinic, as Thompson abides by CDC guidelines requiring masks in all locations where healthcare is being delivered.
The flu shots are free to patients with insurance (patients must present an insurance card at the time of the visit). The self-pay cost for those without insurance is $40, and $75 for the high-dose vaccine (cash, check, MasterCard or Visa). Visit www.ThompsonHealth.com/flu for more information.
