Question Flu Shots after security

(I assume they do not use anything sharp and don't have more than 3 ounces of vaccine! )

US airports offer airside flu shots

Five major airports in the USA have begun offering flu vaccinations to travellers once they have gone past security checkpoints.

Similar services have previously been available for passengers prior to security checks, but research suggests many travellers do not take up the service because of fears they may miss their flights.

Now airports in Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Newark and San Francisco have set up health stations past the security checkpoints.

They're in just about every terminal in ORD. Certainly T3 and T1. You can also get a shot in the medical facility in T2. They were pretty spendy this year. $35 or $40, I forget which.

I've never considered flu shots during any part of my trip. I always do it when I'm not traveling.

Saw them just past security in MDW last week as well.

I'm skipping a flu shot this year as I've had one for the last three years and every year I've had the flu.
