Fall is here and now is time to prepare for flu season by getting an influenza vaccine. All VA Western New York Healthcare System (VAWNYHS) patients will be offered the flu vaccine and

COVID-19 vaccine during all face-to-face clinic appointments.  In addition, VAWNYHS is holding walk-in flu clinics for Veterans at all service locations including drive-through clinics in

Buffalo and Batavia. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends everyone 6 months and older get a flu vaccine every season with rare exceptions. Vaccination is particularly important

for people who are at higher risk of serious complications from influenza.  The CDC recommends to stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccines. Flu vaccination has important benefits. It can

reduce flu illnesses, visits to doctor’s offices, and missed work and school due to flu, as well as make symptoms less severe and reduce flu-related hospitalizations and deaths in people who

get vaccinated but still get sick. FLU SHOT CLINICS BUFFALO VA WALK IN CLINIC 3495 Bailey Ave. Buffalo, NY 14215 Freedom Hall/301  Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. 3:30 p.m. through Nov. 1.
