Free Flu Vaccine Clinics
Ottawa Public Health (OPH) is helping Ottawa residents stay healthy this season by offering free
flu vaccine clinics. The flu vaccine is also available at doctors’ offices, community health centres
and walk-in clinics.
The flu spreads easily from person to person usually through coughing, sneezing or touching
contaminated objects. Even if you do not have flu-like symptoms, you can pass the virus to
someone. Protect yourself and your loved ones from getting sick this flu season by getting the flu
vaccine. It is safe, easy and free.
The flu vaccine is recommended for all Ontario residents over six months of age.
Visit ottawa.ca/flu or call Ottawa Public Health Information at 613-580-6744 or 3-1-1 to obtain a
list of health care providers and community clinics that are administering the flu vaccine.
