Flu vaccinations are now available at the Bryan County Health Department clinics in Richmond Hill and Pembroke by appointment. 

The flu vaccine is recommended for everyone over six months of age, and high-dose flu vaccine options are available for seniors aged 65 and up. 

You can schedule an appointment for your annual flu shot by calling the Bryan County Health Department in Richmond Hill at 912-756-2611 or in Pembroke at 912-653-4331. 

Most people will have no out-of-pocket cost for vaccination. Many health insurance plans are accepted, and there are no-cost options for individuals without health insurance.

 Vaccination is particularly important for those at high risk of complications from flu, including adults 65 and older, children younger than five, pregnant women, people with weakened immune systems, and people with chronic health conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and heart disease. Flu shots and COVID shots can be given at the same appointment, if desired.

 Shipments of the updated COVID vaccine for the 2024-2025 respiratory virus season have been limited, but additional shipments are expected in the coming weeks.

Call the Bryan County Health Department for the latest information on COVID vaccine availability.
