Every fall the Ware Board of Health holds Flu and Pneumonia Vaccination Clinics for Ware Senior Citizens and other residents age 18 years or older at high risk for complications from the flu. There is usually one large clinic and several small "make-up" clinics. House calls for the homebound can be scheduled by calling the Ware Board of Health office at (413) 967-9615.
The clinic is scheduled immediately after the Ware Board of Health receives the vaccine from the State Department of Public Health. The date of receipt of the vaccine from the State varies from year to year. The date, time, and place of the clinic is advertised in local newspapers, cable access TV and on this website.

Town residents with serious health conditions that make them more susceptible to complications from the flu may also participate. There is no charge for this service.
