Vaccine

Illinois State Senate District 21 issued the following announcement on Oct. 23.

State Senator Laura Ellman is partnering with Walgreens, DuPage Health Coalition and DuPage County Forest Preserve to host a community flu shot clinic.

“This pandemic is still the main focus on the minds of Illinoisans, but it doesn’t change that we’re entering flu season,” Ellman said. “It’s more important than ever to get your flu shot. We need to keep our hospitals’ capacities high as COVID cases rise.”

The clinic will be first come first served. Masks and social distancing will be required at all times. If you are under 18 years of age, you must have a parent or guardian present to receive a shot. All insurance is accepted, co-pays may apply. Free flu vaccine vouchers are available for uninsured DuPage County residents.
