Canada Immunizations

[Candexan 2]

My medical is in Vancouver as well on Oct 19th I am just going to go to Bellingham Walmart and pay $25.00 for a flu shot. If you are in Vancouver it shouldn't be a problem to go to the US. I have never had a problem crossing the border and I cross on a weekly basis. Just be sure to be honest.

That would be awesome but I have a five year ban on entering the US.

Ask your family doctor for a prescription for Flumist, it's a nasally administered live attenuated flu vaccine, and it IS available from the manufacturer already for this flu season. At Walmart in Ontario, it costs approximately 20$ You have to bring it to your doctor's office to have them administer (even though it's not a shot) but call around to the pharmacies in your area and see who is able to provide it. (Because it is a cold storage vaccine, a lot of the smaller pharmacies don't want to dispense it, but Walmart and Shoppers here have no problem)

It's not available for children under 2, or the elderly (can't recall the age, sorry, as we normally just presrcibe it for kids in our practice.) Not only will you save yourself the trip to the US, you'll get your vaccine without a shot!! (and have a receipt to prove it, but also get your doctor to sign your vaccine card.)

We got our flu shots delivered here last week, and I've already given out close to a hundred of them, but the Flumist is starting to catch on too.
