Now is the time to get vaccinated against respiratory viruses like the flu and COVID-19.
Vaccines are available by appointment at pharmacies like Walgreens and CVS, and at your doctor’s office.
Garfield County Public Health is also offering walk-in clinics for both shots in Glenwood Springs every Wednesday in October, and in Rifle on every Thursday. Those clinics will also be open on the first two Wednesdays of November in Glenwood, and the first two Thursdays of November in Rifle.
Carrie Godes with Garfield County Public Health said it’s also a good time to get your kids caught up on their regular vaccine schedule, like measles and whooping cough, if they fell behind during COVID.
