You can get vaccinated against influenza until June 30, 2025. On July 1, 2025, all flu vaccine will expire. If you have not been vaccinated against influenza this season, it is a good idea to get the flu shot now. It may even protect you if flu season comes early, for example, in October 2025.

Twelve more pediatric flu deaths bring the 2024-’25 season total to 216, topping last year’s non-pandemic total of 207.

The federal government is still giving out free COVID test kits! We aren't seeing much COVID right now but it might be nice to have a test kit in the house if you need it in the future.

COVID-19 testing can help you know if you have COVID-19 so you can decide what to do next, like getting treatment to reduce your risk of severe illness and taking steps to lower your chances of spreading the virus to others.

We just received flu shots for this season! We do not have any flu nose spray. Call us now and schedule a flu shot only appointment! Beat the rush before October. We have plenty of available flu only appointments right now. We don't have that many in October.

Even more evidence that the HPV vaccine works.

Despite evidence that the HPV vaccine is safe, effective and can help prevent cancer, HPV vaccination rates in the U.S. remain “suboptimal,” say experts.

Click on the link for free COVID tests from the government! Also, don't forget to get the new bivalent COVID booster which came out August 31, 2022. It is more effective than the original COVID shot against the Omicron variant and it is approved if you are 6 months or older! And it is also free! We are still not administering COVID shots at our office at this time...
