Veterans Affairs is planning to host a drive-thru flu vaccine clinic at the Harlingen VA Health Care Center on Saturday.

No appointments are needed and the drive-thru clinic is open to all veterans enrolled in VA health care, according to a news release.

Flu vaccines help prevent serious illness, hospital stays and complications, especially for older adults and those with chronic conditions, according to the news release.

The Harlingen VA Health Care Center is located at 2601 Veterans Drive, and the flu vaccines will be available from 8 a.m. to noon.
