MILFORD, MA — Milford residents will be able to get free flu vaccines at an upcoming drive-thru clinic hosted by the Board of Health. The Oct. 7 clinic will take place in two parts: from 9 to 11 a.m. and 3 to 5 p.m. The clinics are open to anyone over 6 months, but the Board of Health is recommending that residents visit the town website to make a time slot reservation. The state is pushing all residents to get a flu shot this year to avert a potential "twindemic" — where people sick with either the flu or coronavirus overwhelm local hospitals. All students in Massachusetts, including those in college, are required to get a vaccine by Dec. 31. The Oct. 7 clinic will be held at Milford High School from the entrance at 31 West Fountain St.
