Kansas University Hospital will offer free flu shots during its 16th annual Drive-Thru Flu Shot clinic on Oct. 30.

The event will be from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the parking lot just east of the intersection of 36th and Rainbow Boulevard in Kansas City, Kan.

No appointment is necessary for the clinic, which is available to anyone 8 and older.

The hospital has 7,000 doses available, double the amount of last year’s event.

Although the flu shots are free, the hospital will also accept donations and non-perishable food items for Harvesters Community Food Network, which supplies food to Just Food, Douglas County’s food bank.

Lawrence’s first drive-through flu shot clinic will be from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Saturday in KU’s Park and Ride Lot at the northwest corner of 23rd and Iowa streets.
