Spectrum Generations, in partnership with Northern Light Health, plans to offer two flu shot and vaccination clinics.

The first will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 17, at the Muskie Community Center, 38 Gold St. in Waterville.

The second will be held from 11 a.m. t0 2 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 1, at the Cohen Community Center, 22 Town Farm Road in Hallowell.

To receive the flu vaccine, people should bring their insurance card. The private pay cost for the flu vaccine is $50 for those younger than 65, and $85 for those 65 and older. No person will be turned away for inability to pay, according to a news release from Lindsay MacDonald, Community Engagement director, Spectrum Generations.

To receive the COVID-19 booster, recipients must have completed a primary series of COVID-19 immunizations (two Pfizer or two Moderna, or one Johnson & Johnson). Those having had the primary series and one or more boosters are also eligible.

Recipients must be at least two months out from having received their last COVID-19 vaccine (primary or booster). The Bivalent booster protects against the original virus that causes COVID-19, Delta variants and Omicron variants.

In-home vaccination options are also available for individuals that are homebound. To schedule a home visit or for more information about the vaccination clinics, call 800-639-1553.
