It's not too early to receive your annual influenza vaccine. Getting vaccinated not only protects you, but also prevents you from spreading the disease to your family, friends,

Childhood Immunizations
Children eligible to receive VFC provided vaccines include children enrolled in Medicaid, children who do not have health insurance and children who are American Indian or Alaskan Native. In addition, children who have health insurance that does not cover the cost of vaccines are considered to be "underinsured," and are eligible to be seen at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), rural health clinics (RHCs) and public health facilities.
