Just got mine this afternoon. Can you believe our health insurance didn't cover it? It cost $30 at the pharmacy. I mean $30 is fine and basically that's my copay for most visits (with the exception of specialists and most of the doctors we see are specialists because anyone who is not an internist is considered a specialist like my ob/gyn for example and that copay is higher) but how could our health insurance not cover the flu vaccine? I usually get it at work so it never cost me anything before and I was surprised that it was not even covered partly.
Our pharmacist told me that last year's flu vaccine totally missed the mark and was not protective since it covered the wrong strain. Let's hope this year's flu vaccine is more accurate!
