With fall finally arriving, the Richmond City Health District is looking to get ahead of any potential illness by bringing flu vaccinations to the public — all at no cost.

From 1 to 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 25, free flu shots will be offered at the Southwood Apartments’ Pool House, near the intersection of Southwood Parkway and Clarkson Road in South Side.

Adults and children age 5 and older can get the shots, although parents or guardians must accompany minors. No insurance or identification are needed.

People getting flu shots are asked to wear short sleeves.

Other dates and locations for future community flu shot offerings will be announced as they are determined.
