South County — The Southern Berkshire Public Health Collaborative (SBPHC) has opened registration for 17 mobile clinics being held in South County. This year’s clinic season is starting off with a Saturday clinic on September 28 at W.E.B. Dubois Middle School, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., and continuing through late November. A complete list of clinics can be found here.
All clinics will have the updated COVID vaccine and regular-dose flu vaccine for people six months or older and senior-dose flu vaccine for people 65 or older. Registration is strongly recommended for these clinics in order to ensure proper staffing and vaccine levels. Pre-registration assistance is available over the phone by contacting SBPHC at (413) 243-5540 ext. 19.
All vaccines are provided at no out-of-pocket cost; however, individuals should bring their identification and insurance card to the clinic, if they have one. Short-sleeved shirts are encouraged.
In-home vaccinations for both COVID and flu vaccines are available for individuals who have difficulty leaving the house. To request an in-home vaccination, individuals should call SBPHC at (413) 243-5540 ext. 109 and leave a message that includes your name, town, and phone number. These in-home vaccinations will start to be scheduled in late September
