DETROIT
- As
schools
and
businesses
reopen,
health
experts
predict
much
higher
rates of
reported
flu
cases
this
fall,
due in
part to
higher
levels
of
susceptibility
and
risk.
With flu
season
fast
approaching,
we are
reminded
of
disparities
in
access
to
preventative
care
that are
prevalent
in
lower-income
households
and
underserved
communities,
in
particular
communities
of
color.
To help
bridge
this
health
resource
gap,
Bank of
America
is
partnering
with CVS
Health
to fund
free flu
shots in
underserved
communities.
The
no-cost
flu shot
voucher
program
to
support
Detroit-area
residents
will be
made
available
through
local
Bank of
America
nonprofit
partners:
Alternatives
for
Girls,
COTS,
Focus:
Hope,
SER
Metro
Detroit,
and
United
Way.
Free flu
shot
vouchers
will be
available
at these
organizations
and must
be
redeemed
by March
2022.
The
vouchers
can be
accessed
by
reaching
out to
one of
the
participating
organizations
or your
local
CVS.
This is
the
second
year
that
Bank of
America
and CVS
Health
have
offered
the
no-cost
flu shot
program.
This
effort
is part
of the
bank’s
ongoing
commitment
to
address
health
disparities
in the
communities
it
serves.
