Updated booster & flu vaccine clinic

Medicine Man Pharmacy & Compounding will host an updated booster and flu vaccine clinic from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 15, at 605 Jackson St. Eligible residents may elect to receive one or both the updated COVID-19 booster and the seasonal flu vaccine at the clinic.
 
The clinic will offer the updated Pfizer booster to those 5 years old and older who received their vaccine or booster at least 2 months ago and the updated Moderna booster to those 6 years old and older who received their vaccine or updated booster at least two months ago.  
 
The clinic will also provide the seasonal flu vaccine to those 5 years old and older.  

To make a required appointment for either the flu vaccine, updated COVID-19 booster, or both, go to www.hobokennj.gov/vaccine. 

Residents will need to book two separate appointments if they want both the flu vaccine and the updated booster, but Medicine Man Pharmacy & Compounding will administer both shots at the same time during either appointment time.
