Adult and Travel Immunizations

Flu Clinic Information

The Toledo-Lucas County Health Department is ready to keep you and your loved ones healthy this flu season. Flu season runs from October through May.

All insurances may be billed, including Medicare Part B and Ohio Medicaid. No one will be turned away for inability to pay.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that everyone six months of age and older, and able to be vaccinated, should receive the flu vaccine each year.

For individuals requiring special accommodations, please contact the Health Department at 419-213-4163, to set up an appointment.

Regardless of age, we all need immunizations to protect against serious, and sometimes deadly, diseases. The specific vaccines you need as an adult are determined by your age, job, lifestyle, health conditions, travel destinations, and which vaccines you’ve had in the past. TLCHD offers Adult & Travel Immunizations at competitive prices along with vaccine and travel information.

TLCHD offers the following vaccines. Most vaccines are covered by insurance, but please check with your insurance carrier for your financial responsibility.

In addition to adult vaccinations, the following travel vaccines are available. Most travel vaccines are not covered by insurance, please check with your insurance carrier for your financial responsibility.

Please plan ahead to vaccinate at least 2 weeks prior to departure. You need time to complete the vaccine series before you travel and your body needs time to build up immunity. Start planning for your vaccines when you start planning for your trip.

If you require Malaria prevention, please contact your primary care provider.

To discuss your vaccine needs or our vaccine prices please contact our Travel Nurse at 419-213-4163.
