Flu shots for the 2020-21 season are in stock at PMG!

The optimal time to get your flu shot, according to the CDC, is in September and October.

Due to the ongoing COVID19 pandemic, healthcare resources are stretched thin and therefore this may be the most important season to get your flu shot. Plus you don't want to risk being co-infected with flu AND covid19!

To maximize social distancing, this year PMG is offering drive-up flu shots. Just park your car and call or text 970-372-0456 and we will come to you.

Remember to keep your vitamins and medicines up and away and out of sight. Each year, about 50,000 young children wind up in Emergency Rooms across the country because they got into medicines while an adult wasn’t looking. Remember to put away your medicine out of sight and reach every time, talk to your children about medicine safety, use the child-proof safety cap on bottles, and have the Poison Control Hotline number (800-222-1222) ready in case of an emergency.
