• In order to increase access to vaccines and eliminate need for special deliveries, we have increased our vaccine delivery to twice a month for each area. Please adjust your orders accordingly.
• Influenza vaccine (as available) will be distributed according to the revised regular vaccine delivery schedule
• Orders can be placed anytime throughout the month; however, the deadline to submit your vaccine order is the Wednesday prior to your delivery date. We are unable to guarantee delivery of orders that are received after the deadline.
