FLU SHOTS

Are flu shots readily available lakeside? Up here in Seattle, there is a two-week waiting list at my nearest pharmacy. I want a flu shot but I would rather come back home and get one lakeside than wait another two weeks.

Thanks in advance for any advice you may have.

Rumors on FB of, "sometime in October." Which sounds about right.

There was no shortage of the quadrivalent last year; the year before it was scarce at least initially. The trivalent is given at the public Centros de Salud.

For those of us 65+ who used to get the flu shot in US, we were given quadrivalent. I am watching a few local health sites and will post if I hear more.

Hey, good news. I just phoned my doctor's office here in Seattle and they told me to walk over to the office and get a shot later this afternoon. Being a mild hypochondriac, I always get my shots ASAP. The office is 4 or 5 blocks away. A good exercise walk for this lazy old man :)
