As in past years, the drive-thru flu clinics are designed to be user friendly, and no appointments are needed, according to MaineHealth, in a news relelease. On-site signage at each location will lead participants to a drive-thru location where clinical staff will greet them and administer the flu vaccine.

Most insurances are accepted, and those with insurance should be sure to bring their insurance card. Those without insurance can receive flu vaccines at no cost, according to the news release.

MaineHealth recommends an annual flu shot for everyone age six months and older—especially people who are at greater risk for serious complications from the flu. For more information about flu and the flu vaccine, please visit mainehealth.org/flu.
