Sun City area CVS offering flu shots
Vaccination already available at local stores
Posted
CVS Health officials remind residents it is more important than ever to stay current with vaccinations and other routine health care needs.
By getting an annual flu shot, ensuring COVID-19 boosters are up to date and taking other proactive preventative health measures, individuals and families can help protect themselves against seasonal flu and other illnesses and do their part to help protect the overall health of their community.
Flu shots are now available at all CVS Pharmacy and MinuteClinic locations across the Valley with digital and walk-in appointments available for people of all ages, seven days per week, with extended evening and weekend hours.
Sun City area CVS locations include 10720 W. Bell Road and 9172 W. Union Hills Drive, Peoria.
Digital scheduling offers patients flexibility and the ability to schedule multiple patients at once, which makes it easier for families and other groups that want to get vaccinated together. Visit CVS.com, use the CVS Pharmacy app or text FLU to 287898. Patients can also schedule an immunization appointment with a MinuteClinic provider at MinuteClinic.com. Customers who schedule an appointment digitally will receive a $5 off $20 coupon valid through Dec. 31.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials recommends individuals get their flu vaccination early in the fall, before flu season begins, and ideally no later than the end of October. CVS Pharmacy and MinuteClinic carry multiple flu vaccine options, including the higher dose vaccine, which is recommended for seniors.
