Health Department Offers Drive-Thru Flu Vaccination Clinics

Contactless Vaccination Clinics are Encouraged

(https://www.cdc.gov/flu/)

Flu season is here and the Trumbull Health Department (THD) reminds residents that amid the COVID-19 pandemic, flu vaccinations are extremely important this year. Taking into account the pandemic guidelines, THD is offering drive-thru flu vaccination clinics. THD encourages residents to follow these two simple steps:

  1. Complete the consent form in advance and bring a copy to the vaccination clinic. Consent forms can be found online at http://www.trumbull-ct.gov/flu-clinic or simply call the Health Department at 203-452-1030 to have one emailed or mailed to you. We will have forms available onsite at all vaccination clinics for your convenience.
  2. Bring a printed copy of your insurance cards, if you are able.

Drive-Thru vaccinations clinics are scheduled for:

  • Monday, October 12 (for seniors and public) at Trumbull High School, 76 Strobel Road, from 9:00 am-11:00 am
  • Saturday, October 24 (for families and children), at the Health Department, 335 White Plains Road, from 9:00 am – 11:00 am
  • Tuesday, November 3 (for general public), at the Health Department, 335 White Plains Road, from 9:00 – 11:00 am

The Trumbull Health Department accepts Aetna, Aetna Medicare Advantage, Anthem BC/BS, Cigna, ConnectiCare, ConnectiCare VIP Medicare, Medicare Part B, Oxford, UnitedHealthcare, and UHC Medicare. For those without the above insurance the standard seasonal flu vaccine cost is $30.00 (cash or check accepted). For those 65 years of age and older we have the High Dose flu vaccine. The cost is $50.00. Residents attending one of the health department clinics should bring their insurance card and driver’s license (if available) to the vaccination clinic.
