The free shots at public health clinics are the Trivalent.  

In a few weeks the Quadrivalent will be available at private providers as it has been in the past.

In previous years we have gotten the Quadrivalent at LCS, Hospital SAT, Chapala Med and Lakeside Medical Supplies.

We were on list with the Clinic in HSAT complex; they called yesterday (missed call) so today (Saturday) we went over and walked-in for shots.  

Also, Dr. Jessica Flores posted on her FB page that she is giving shots starting Monday, no appts. needed.

At both places shots are 750p, cash only.

Apples v. Oranges.

The free public clinics only provide Trivalent low dose flu vax.

At Clínica de Diagnostica at the Hospital SAT complex they are giving Fluzone, the Quadrivalent HIGH Dose flu vax.  This is likely what the other private providers are giving since all are at same cost and all arrived at same time here.  

Fluzone is recommended for seniors.  Read about it here.https://www.cdc.gov/flu/prevent/qa_fluzone.htm#:~:text=Fluzone%20High%2DDose%20Quadrivalent%20is,for%20the%202022%2D2023%20season.

What is Fluzone High-Dose Quadrivalent vaccine?
Fluzone High-Dose Quadrivalent vaccine contains four times the antigen as standard dose flu vaccines. It is manufactured by Sanofi Pasteur Inc. Fluzone High-Dose Quadrivalent is a four-component flu vaccine. It is one of three influenza vaccines (along with Flublok Quadrivalent and Fluad Quadrivalent) that is preferentially recommended for people 65 years and older. This preferential recommendation is new for the 2022-2023 season.
