Although hand washing and other precautions may help lower the risk of contracting the flu, the most effective method is still the flu vaccine.

OGDEN, Utah – The Weber-Morgan Health Department is preparing for flu season by opening a drive-thru shot clinic.

The clinic will take place in the Weber-Morgan Health Department parking lot at 477 23rd Street in downtown Ogden on Thursday, October 1. The clinic begins at 10 a.m. and runs until 2 p.m.

Dates and time for other clinics are on the health department’s website.

“The public is invited to any of our clinics. We will be adhering to COVID-19 guidelines so please wear a mask and stay 6-feet apart from those outside your immediate household,” said public health nurse Cheryl Andreasen.

“It’s really important to get that protection early, especially this year due to COVID-19,” Anderson added. “We want to avoid complications that could come from becoming infected with both viruses, and to keep our hospitalizations down as we are facing a novel, highly contagious virus that causes COVID-19.”

Vaccines will also be offered for whooping cough, pneumonia and other diseases.

Most insurance will cover flu shots so it’s important to bring insurance and Medicare/Medicaid cards.

Vaccines not covered by insurance will cost $30, flu mist $35 and the high-dose quadrivalent vaccine recommended for those over 65 is $60.
