Getting a flu shot is especially important this year. Cambridge residents can get a flu shot at no charge at an upcoming flu clinic run by the Cambridge Public Health Department. If you are seeking a flu shot, you will be asked to follow new guidelines and recommendations to support COVID-19 safety and health measures.
Flu shot appointments are required this year and can be made online or by phone. No walk-ins will be allowed.
