Tylenol and cough drops are not the only thing you can get to help with the upcoming flu season at your local drug store. You can also receive a flu shot. With so many locations and options, there should not be a shortage this year.
Everyone knows that people should get the flu shot once a year, especially people who are considered high risk. But most people do not realize they do not have to call up the doctor's office, wait at the hospital or make an appointment (or not be able to) in order to get one. Many local drugs stores including Walgreens, Kinney Drugs, CVS, Rite Aid, and Eckerd offer this service. The drug stores bring in Registered Nurses for a one day clinic to administer the flu shot.
Walgreens in Camillus will host their clinic on October 10 from one to four in the afternoon. Melissa Deale is a pharmacist at Walgreens. Deale says that drug stores play an important role in protecting the community against the flu. "When people come in to pick up a prescription and they see that we are having a clinic it reminds them to get their yearly flu shot."
Deale says they are expecting over one hundred people to attend their clinic. There are not appointments and they work with a first come first serve system.
Most local pharmacies will accept insurance or Medicare for the immunization. You can contact your local drug store online or by phone for dates, times and more information.
