It's Not Too Late To Vaccinate
Lake County Public Health
Lake County Public Health has a couple more flu shot clinics available. Anyone 6 months of age or older is encouraged to get a flu vaccine. In addition to flu shots, we will also be offering the Tdap (Tetanus, Diptheria and Pertussis) vaccine - also known at the whooping cough vaccine.
The Tdap vaccine is required for all children entering the 7th grade and is recommended for all adults who have not yet received a dose. It is especially important to vaccinate adults who are around small infants.
Seasonal flu shots are $2 and the Tdap vaccine is $9.
Lake County Public Health Clinic schedule for the seasonal flu shots and Tdap vaccines is as follows:
