Flu Season Ahead

Vaccine available soon for patients during regular doctor appointments.

At NorthBay Health, flu vaccine has been ordered and in-clinic vaccination efforts should begin in late-September for patients during their regular doctor appointments.

Drive-up clinics for NorthBay patients are being planned for October. Watch our flu page for updates.

NorthBay will provide a variety of flu vaccine options. While flu seasons vary in severity, during most seasons people 65 years and older are at greatest risk of severe illness, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC is recommending the use of the high-dose vaccine for older adults, given their higher risk.

NorthBay Health Primary Care patients can contact their provider to schedule appointments by calling (707) 646-5500.
