All-Island Seasonal Flu Immunization Clinic
Saturday, November 7, 2020
9 am – 1 pm
Staging areas open at 8 am


IMPORTANT INFORMATION: There will be two vehicle staging areas for the seasonal flu clinic, Waban Park in Oak Bluffs and the Ag Hall in West Tisbury. On the day of the clinic anyone driving to the clinic must register at one of the staging areas prior to being directed to the high school for your vaccine. VEHICLES SHOULD NOT REPORT DIRECTLY TO THE HIGH SCHOOL. Vehicles reporting directly to the high school will be turned away and advised to go to one of the staging areas to register. Walkers, bicycle riders and those arriving by VTA should go directly to the high school Performing Arts Center parking lot to check-in. DUE TO THE PANDEMIC, ALL VACCINATIONS WILL BE ADMINISTERED OUTSIDE SO INDIVIDUALS ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO USE THE DRIVE-THROUGH.
