If you don't have insurance, it doesn't mean you have to go without a flu shot this season.
Employees from Walgreens pharmacy were at the Millcreek Mall, giving flu shots to adults free of charge.
People who were underinsured or had no insurance at all could protect themselves against the bug, after filling out some simple paperwork.
It sounds like it's a good idea to get one whenever you can, because the virus is particularly strong this year. Doctors say it can incapacitate you for as long as a week or more.
If you missed out Saturday, many local pharmacies still offer shots, but you will probably have to pay.
