Montgomery County Flu Vaccination Clinics for Residents
Montgomery County clinics will offer FREE flu vaccinations by appointment only. A flu vaccination is needed every year because viruses are constantly changing. The flu vaccine is manufactured each year to keep up with the flu viruses as they change. “Flu season is around the corner,” said Montgomery County Health Officer Dr. Ulder J. Tillman, “and vaccination is the best way to protect against getting the flu. I urge everyone over the age of six months to get vaccinated.”

For more information about dates, locations, and appointments, go to www.montgomerycountymd.gov/flu or call 240-777-0311.
