Lehigh Valley Health Network

Free Drive-thru Flu Shots in November

The annual Lehigh Valley Health Network drive-through free all ages influenza vaccinations will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 6 and 7 at Coca-Cola Park only this year. Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom will not be available to participate this year due to an extended operating season. Adults and children age two and older in the vehicle and clinic workers will be required to wear a face covering. Wear loose-fitting clothing for the shot to be administered in the arm, and the leg of children under two years old.

Both standard (two months to 64 years old) and senior (age 65 and older) doses will be available. Vaccination should be deferred for people with a suspected or confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis, regardless of symptoms. Supplies are plentiful at this time.

A vaccine information statement, consent form and map of the vaccination route for Coca-Cola Park are available at lvhn.org/flushot. Please bring a completed and signed 2020-2021 consent form for each individual receiving a flu shot. Review the vaccine information sheet. Forms are available by visiting lvhn.org/flushot or by calling 888-402-LVHN (5846).

LVHN is partnering with area food banks and shelters to accept optional donations of unexpired (please check dates in advance), non-perishable food items both days. Diapers, personal hygiene products such as toothbrushes, coffee pods and disinfectant wipes are also needed.
