BOH announces October vaccine clinics
By Mike BergerThe Canton Board of Health recently announced a series of COVID Bivalent booster and flu vaccination clinics that will be held on three dates in October.
The first clinic, offering the Moderna Bivalent booster (18+) as well as flu shots, is scheduled for Wednesday, October 12, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Canton Senior Center, 500 Pleasant Street. The other two clinics will offer both the Pfizer Bivalent booster (12+) and the flu vaccine on consecutive Saturdays: October 15 in the Galvin Middle School cafeteria and October 22 in the CHS cafeteria. Both Saturday clinics will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The single-dose Bivalent boosters, also known as updated boosters, are broadly protective against the original COVID-19 strain and offer better protection against the omicron variant of the virus.
At any of the three upcoming clinics, individuals may receive both the booster and flu shot on the same day. For details, eligibility requirements and to pre-register, go to town.canton.ma.us/139/Board-of-Health. If you have questions or require assistance, call 781-821-5021.
