Door County Public Health will be hosting flu clinics throughout Door County in October in Sister Bay, Sturgeon Bay, Brussels and Washington Island.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC), recommends everyone 6 months and older get a flu vaccine.
There will be a $39.00 fee (checks only) for the vaccine for adults.
For adults with Medicare, Part B covers the cost of the vaccine; and individuals with traditional Medicare Part B, Humana Medicare Advantage Plan, or United Health Care Medicare Advantage Plan are requested to bring their insurance cards to the clinic site. Other types of insurance are not accepted. Children aged 4 through 18 years are eligible to receive the flu vaccine free of charge at these clinics, regardless of insurance status.
This year clinics will be conducted in a drive-up fashion. To expedite the process we people are asked to do the following:
1. Wear short sleeves and have your arm readily accessible
2. Have your Medicare card available (if applicable)
3. Payment $39.00 (checks payable to Door County Public Health). Please have checks written out prior to coming to the clinic.
4. Bring your own pen
5. Cloth Face Coverings are required
While it is recommended that all children ages 6 months – 18 years receive flu vaccine each year, our drive-thru clinics will only be able to provide vaccines for children age 4 and up. If you have a child younger than 4, please contact your primary physician to schedule a vaccine.
Flu shots should be deferred for persons with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, regardless of symptoms, until criteria have been met for them to discontinue isolation. While mild illness is not a contraindication to vaccination, vaccination visits for these individuals should be postponed to avoid exposing healthcare personnel and other patients to the virus that causes COVID-19
