Drive-thru clinic offers flu shots at Pearlridge Center Saturday

Sep. 1—Flu shots and other vaccinations will be administered Saturday at a drive-thru clinic presented by Longs Drugs, the Hawaii Medical Service Association and the Honolulu Star-Advertiser.

Organizers said the clinic will be held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Pearlridge Center, in the Wai Makai parking lot fronting the former Sears location. Motorists can enter from Kamehameha Highway or Pali Momi Street.

Participants should preregister at and bring their insurance card—with HMSA, Medicare, Prime, UHA and HMAA accepted. Appointments are preferred but walk-ins and drive-ups are welcome. Participants will receive a $5-off shopping pass if they preregister and a Longs Drugs swag-bag when they receive a flu shot at this clinic.

Besides the flu shot, pneumonia shots and other select vaccinations will also be offered, organizers said. The clinic is for ages 3 years old and up only.
