CHINO HILLS – If you don’t have insurance and need to get flu shots for you or your children, the San Bernardino County Health Department will be giving free flu shots Thursday, Nov. 19.

Flu shots will be provided to adults, including senior citizens and pregnant women, as well as children. Children must be three years of age and older, and children 18 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Children below nine years of age may require two doses of flu vaccines (four weeks apart) based on prior vaccination history.

The clinic will be open from 3 until 5 p.m. at Chino Hills High School, located at 16150 Pomona Rincon Road.

Chino Hills High School is a Point of Dispensing (POD) site where the community can go to receive medication and/or vaccinations during a public health emergency, such as a pandemic influenza or bioterrorism.

The flu shots are provided and administered by the County of San Bernardino Department of Public Health, Preparedness and Response Program.
