The vaccinations help to reduce the incidence of influenza, which can be particularly serious in the elderly, and causes high rates of absenteeism in the workplace. Vaccinations are given by registered nurses at various locations in Monterey and San Benito Counties during the months of October and November. We can arrange to bring a flu vaccination program to your workplace. Click here for more information on the flu clinic program and schedule.
