The Public Health Division of the El Dorado County Health and Human Services Agency has wrapped up its community flu clinics for the season and is now offering low-cost flu vaccine by appointment.

The seasonal influenza vaccine is available in the shot and nasal mist forms through Public Health for $10 per vaccination. No one will be turned away due to inability to pay.

Individuals must be at least 6 months of age to receive the influenza vaccine. The Tdap (whooping cough) booster shot and pneumonia vaccine are also available by appointment through Public Health for $10 per shot.
