The Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County (DOH-Pinellas) urges everyone to get their vaccine before Halloween. Although many health insurance providers cover the cost of the flu vaccine, those who are under or uninsured may find it difficult to afford the cost.

During Oct. 25-29 only, you can say "boo" to the flu by getting your flu vaccine at no cost. Walk in to one of the DOH-Pinellas listed below during regular hours or book an appointment by calling (727) 824-6931.

Adults and children older than six months of age can get flu vaccines at no cost from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at these DOH-Pinellas centers:

• St. Petersburg, 205 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. St. N.
