Vaccination Clinics 2021

VaccinationsCarson City Health and Human Services (CCHHS) is working with our schools to offer children COVID-19 and Flu Vaccinations Saturday, Oct. 9, from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Carson High School. Additionally, annual seasonal flu vaccinations will be offered at school sites throughout October. See dates and locations listed below. There will be a team of CCHHS licensed nurses at each school to administer the flu vaccine. The vaccination is safe and a health action that benefits all age groups to protect against influenza illness

The Vaccine will only be available as injectable (commonly known as “a shot”) for all age groups in 2021-2022. Based on recommendations from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), the nasal mist vaccine will not be available. The shot will protect against four (4) flu viruses.
