Alberta Health Services (AHS) is holding flu immunization clinics in Rocky Mountain House, Rimbey and Eckville for children under five years of age and their family and household members.

AHS says in addition to offering the vaccine to children under the age of five and their families, AHS flu clinics are also available to individuals who do not have a provincial health care number, and to individuals who live in a community where there are no other immunizing healthcare providers.
AHS notes all Albertans, six months of age and older, are eligible to be immunized at a variety of locations, free of charge. Those five years of age and older can get immunized at participating pharmacies and doctor’s offices.
AHS encourages individuals to ask about getting a COVID booster at the same time.
