A Drive-through Flu Shot Clinic: Is it Time to Try One?

Last year the COVID-19 pandemic added a wrinkle to my pediatric office's plans to administer more than 1,000 influenza vaccines to our patients and their parents.

In previous years we would have put families in an exam room, administered the shot or live nasal vaccine, and sent everyone back out through the waiting room packed with other families waiting their turn.

We revised all that here in Raleigh, NC, last year with our drive-through flu clinic. Here's how to do it if your considering it this year.
