Shelby County Health Department Offers Walk-In Influenza Immunization Clinics

The Shelby County Health Department has received its seasonal supply of the flu vaccine. They will have walk-in Influenza and Pneumonia vaccination clinics for all adults ages 19 and up Monday through Friday from 8AM to 11:30, and 1PM until 3:30, as long as the vaccine is available. The Center for Disease control recommends Pneumonia vaccinations for all people 65 and up, and a booster is required if you were vaccinated before the age of 65. Guidelines recommend routine Influenza vaccination for all people 6 months of age and older. The health department is a Medicare participating provider, and will accept Medicare and Medicaid payment in full for Flu and Pneumonia vaccinations. It is asked that you bring your Medicare and/or Medicaid cards to the clinics. If you’re not covered by Medicare or Medicaid, there is a $45 fee for a quadrivalent Flu vaccination, and $105 for a Pneumonia vaccination.
