BUDGET SURVEY
FLU VACCINE CLINICS
The Talbot County Health Department will be offering a free Flu vaccine at your child’s school.
The clinic is open to all Talbot County Public School students. If you have multiple children in different schools you can register them for the same flu clinic, it does not have to be the one designated to their school. Please make sure when you are registering that you pick the correct link below.
The Middle School and High School clinics will be held during the school day. If you select one of those clinics then your child will receive their vaccination during school hours.
The Elementary School clinics will be held after school and a parent/guardian must be present for the vaccination.
You must register your child for one of the flu clinics in order for them to receive the vaccination. If you have any questions about the flu vaccine or clinics please contact the Health Department at 410-819-5600.
