The Virginia Department of Health<\/a> (VDH) is gearing up for flu season<\/a>. They\u2019ll have three flu vaccine events for adults ages 18 and older in the Chesterfield Health District<\/a> (CHD): Chesterfield, Colonial Heights and Powhatan.<\/p>\n

Fernando Tirado is the local health emergency coordinator at the CHD. He works with others in nursing, environmental health, office support staff, Medical Reserve Corps<\/a> volunteers, and community partners to ensure these events are successful.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want people to be informed and make an educated decision where their health is concerned,\u201d Tirado said. \u201cWe\u2019re building community resilience by empowering people to prepare for flu season.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Colonial Heights event is Thursday, October 10 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. at St. Michael\u2019s Episcopal Church at 501 Old Town Drive.<\/p>\n

The Powhatan event is Wednesday, October 16 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. at May Memorial Baptist Church at 3926 Old Buckingham Road.<\/p>\n

The Chesterfield event is Tuesday, October 22 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Beulah Recreation Center at 6901 Hopkins Road.<\/p>\n

VDH has a limited supply of the standard dose for each location so it will be first come, first served.<\/p>\n

The best way to prevent the flu is to get vaccinated every year. This year\u2019s shot covers three strains of flu. You can get your flu shot at many different locations, like your doctor\u2019s office or local clinic. Talk with your doctor about any questions or concerns. If you don\u2019t have a regular health care provider, you can get a flu shot at a health department or pharmacy.<\/p>\n

You call the shots!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
