Adventist Health Bakersfield wants to help stop the spread of the flu by offering free flu vaccinations for adults. 

Peak flu season is here in Kern County. Last week, local officials addressed the spike in people heading to emergency rooms with flu-like symptoms after nearly 90 hospitalizations statewide.

Last week, a Bakersfield woman died of complications from the flu.

Adventist Health announced last Thursday that their mobile immunization unit usually just provides immunizations for children, but due to the severity of the flu season, it's being offered to adults.
