Local Health Center to Host Pop-up Halloween Flu Vaccine Clinic

SILVER SPRING, Md. - Rezul -- Silver Spring, MD—Community health center, CCI Health & Wellness Services, hosts Boo to the Flu—a pop-up vaccination clinic—to encourage the local community to get their flu shots and caught-up on routine immunizations. The two-day event, in partnership with Amerigroup, will also offer some COVID-safe Halloween fun for families.

"As health care providers focused on community wellness, we believe it is vital that we focus on prevention and keeping families as healthy as possible." said Dr. Sonya Bruton, CEO & President. "Boo to the Flu allows us an opportunity to meet our multiple aims of physical and emotional wellbeing by providing a small sense of normalcy with a fun Halloween activity while offering a free flu shot to all participants and updating vaccinations on existing patients."

The Halloween-themed event is inspired by the need to help families stay healthy as flu season ramps up. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates there were more than 410,000 flu hospitalizations in 2019. With flu season now beginning this month, overlapping with an increase of COVID cases in the United states, getting a flu shot this year maybe more important ever.
