North Central Public Health District will host a free 3-day vaccine and flu shot clinic at 523 E. 3rd St in The Dalles on November 17th, 18th, and 19th from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The clinic will have JYNNEOS vaccines against monkeypox, Pfizer, Moderna, and the Novavax COVID-19 vaccines, and regular flu shots not specially formulated for seniors.

The interaction between healthcare workers and protestors on 3rd street could have been disastrous or even driven a rift in the community. Instead it taught everyone a little more about how to love and respect their neighbor.
