In Maine, influenza season typically begins in October and peaks mid-winter. In order to prevent serious illness that can lead to hospitalization and possible death in vulnerable populations, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that everyone six months of age and older get a yearly flu vaccine.
Flu shots are available every day on a walk-in basis at the Mid Coast Hospital Walk-In Clinic.
