2020-21 Flu Season – Flu Vaccination Drive-Thru Clinics Now Open
The flu is more serious than the common cold. Protect yourself and your loved ones from serious health risks by getting your annual no cost flu shot. For your safety and convenience, flu vaccinations are now available at the locations below.
Important:
We are experiencing high demand for flu vaccinations in some areas and are working to avoid long lines.
To minimize your wait times, help ease vehicle congestion, and ensure the safety of those visiting our facilities, please follow these guidelines when coming for your flu shot:
- Please do not block fire zones, disabled parking spaces, or any facility entrances.
- If you have flexibility, please keep in mind that our flu shot clinics will be open for several more months.
- Members may also receive a flu vaccine during a scheduled clinic appointment at any of our locations.
- Please wear a mask when you arrive at our facilities to get your flu shot.
- We love pets, but if there is one in your car you may need to get out of your car for your shot. Please help us save time and stay safe by leaving your pet at home if possible.

Drive-Through Flu Shot Program
This year, Kaiser Permanente members, physicians and staff will have a new COVID-19-safe way to get their flu shots: Drive-through flu shot clinics. “The goal is to make it as easy as possible to get a flu shot while minimizing the need to visit our facilities,” says pediatrician Randy Bergen, MD, clinical lead for the flu vaccine program for Northern California Kaiser Permanente. “We want to vaccinate as many people as we can and deliver those vaccines as safely as possible, with social distancing being critical. “
Getting a flu shot is more important than ever as we enter flu season with COVID-19 still spreading in the population. “There’s an additional urgency because of the similarity in symptoms between the flu and COVID-19,” says Dr. Bergen. “We want to keep people out of the hospital and we also don’t know how serious the two infections together can be.”
