Onondaga County offers free flu shots in drive-thru clinic at NBT Bank Stadium
"It's a training exercise with a public benefit," Anderson said."
"Emergency preparedness uses drive-thru exercises as an opportunity to train health department personnel and bolster our public health emergency response capacity," the department said in a statement to syracuse.com."
"Exercising the activities associated with setting up vaccine clinics helps to ensure (the department) has the capacity to set up these clinics on short notice."
Onondaga County Health Department will operate a free drive-thru flu vaccine clinic Monday, Oct. 6, at NBT Bank Stadium. The pop-up clinic is a routine emergency preparedness exercise that has historically trained personnel and served first responders; it is being opened to the public this time. A total of 240 doses are available, with roughly 100 to 150 doses expected for the public after first responders are served. Most recipients can remain in their vehicles; very large vehicles may need to relocate to a designated area. Online sign-up is required and insured individuals must complete a separate form for reimbursement.
