Free bus ride for flu shot

| | Comments (0)

You can get a free bus ride to a flu clinic at the York Expo Center on Sunday, Oct. 18.

The flu shots are being offered to anyone 9 years old and older. The service is free to those who are enrolled in Medicare Part B and most Medicare Advantage plans.

For those who are not eligible under insurance, the fee is $25 for a flu shot and $46 for a pneumonia shot.

All you have to do is get on one of the Rabbittransit buses at the following pickup locations and times:

-- Hudson Park, 401 Ridge Ave. No.1. (10 a.m.; 11:25 a.m. and 12:50 p.m.)

-- Transfer Center, Pershing and King streets (10:15 a.m., 11:40 a.m., 1:05 p.m.)

-- Kingston House, 1243 W. King St. (10:25 a.m., 11:50 a.m., 1:15 p.m.)

-- Delco Plaza, 1201 Carlisle Ave. (10:35 a.m., noon, 1:25 p.m.)

You won't even have to get off the bus to get the shot, said Richard Farr, executive director of Rabbittransit. Workers will board the bus to administer the vaccines.

Rabbittransit has partnered with the York County Area Agency on Aging to provide the free transportation.

"We want York County to be healthy," Farr said.
