Schenectady County Public Health is excited to announce a no-cost vaccine clinic for County residents aged 3 and older. This clinic aims to help keep our community healthy during flu season, especially for those who may not have access to these important vaccines.

“Access to vaccines is crucial for keeping our community healthy, especially during flu season,” said Schenectady County Legislator Omar McGill, Vice-Chair of the Health, Housing, and Human Services Committee. “We are proud to partner with Walgreens to provide these important services to our residents who need them the most.”

The clinic will provide flu vaccines and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines on a first-come, first-served basis. It will be hosted in partnership with Walgreens through their Community Offsite Immunization Program.
