With flu season underway, local leaders are urging El Pasoans to get vaccinated and help reduce the number of flu cases that may require hospitalization, which in turn will help keep hospital rooms available for those being treated for COVID-19 and other illnesses. And if you’ve been paying attention, then you know how dire the situation with bed availability at all our local hospitals currently is.

Free vaccinations are available to anyone 6 months of age and older. While appointments are not needed, those taking advantage of the program are asked to print and fill out a patient questionnaire found at THIS LINK and take it with them. If you don't have access to a printer, the city suggests you let staff know and they will provide you with a questionnaire to fill out on-site.
