ACPL Hosts Vaccine Clinics in Partnership with Super Shot
FORT WAYNE, IN – The Allen County Public Library is hosting a series of Flu vaccination clinics in October. As the community approaches cold and flu season, both entities are dedicated to ensuring Allen County residents have access to vaccines that mitigate the impact of illness on individuals and the community at large. ACPL and Super Shot have partnered since 2021 to provide this service.
“Our network of branches is not only highly effective at getting books in peoples’ hands, it Is also effective at connecting patrons to resources that keep them safe and healthy,” said ACPL Executive Director Susan P. Baier. “We’re so grateful to Super Shot for including us in their lifesaving work and provide this service in places that are convenient, accessible, and comfortable for our patrons.”
Super Shot will be on site at nine ACPL branches offering Flu vaccines for ages 6 months and older. A parent or guardian must be present if the patient is under 18 years old. All participants should bring a form of ID and insurance card if they have one. Super Shot requests a $15 administration fee per vaccine for those without insurance, but no one will be turned away for inability to pay.
