The H1N1 vaccine is the best way to protect against the 2009 H1N1 pandemic virus.
H1N1 Vaccine Clinic Information
The Arlington County Public Health Division is offering free H1N1 vaccine to all eligible individuals. All clinics will be on a walk-in basis as supplies last. No identification (ID) is required. A limited amount of seasonal flu vaccine is available at these clinics.
Who Is Eligible?
Everyone in the general public over 6 months of age is eligible to get the H1N1 vaccine.
