See a sample of the pre-registration screen. The COLOR program is offered statewide, and unfortunately the Town does not have the access to edit the web page at the local level. Similar to previous years, the Town will have a limited amount of "FLUAD Quadrivalent" senior flu vaccine (licensed for use in 65 years and older and offers enhanced protection for seniors), available on first come, first served basis. If you're having difficulty registering, contact the Human Services Department at 781-698-4840 for assistance.
