As the holiday season approaches, Immunize El Paso is here to help keep our community safe from respiratory illnesses with a drive-thru vaccination clinic. With gatherings for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and other festivities around the corner, it’s crucial to stay protected. This clinic will provide a convenient way to shield yourself and your loved ones from seasonal surges in flu, COVID-19, RSV, and pneumonia.

Why Vaccinate Before the Holidays?

Family gatherings, parties, and festive events create wonderful memories but can also increase exposure to respiratory viruses. As people come together, the spread of illnesses can rise, making now the perfect time to get vaccinated. “The next few weeks will be busy for people gathering at holiday work parties, Thanksgiving dinners, or Christmas celebrations. It’s a season to pass along joy—but it’s also a time when respiratory viruses like flu, COVID-19, RSV, and pneumonia can spread,” says Ivan Luna, Immunize El Paso’s Director. “Getting vaccinated now is the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones.”
