Absurd.

So, how much does the shot cost out of pocket?

Good for the infant. Exposure to formaldehyde, aluminum, and mercury is not good for immature immune and nervous systems.
Vaccines could be beneficial if they were prepared with safe ingredients. Unfortunately, removing these additives and contaminants (SV40) is not expedient. The elites do use and benefit from vaccines, but they are able to obtain purified versions.

BS
Throw a twenty down and give your baby a flu shot, if it’s so important.

So instead of whining about it, why doesn’t the woman take her kid to the doctor and get the shot? Jeez, do I have to think of everything?

The cost is irrelevant. The point being that You can't buy the shot for money and you are less worthy than a person of little means. Just because your taxes paid for it doesn't mean you can have it. Only those who can't pay get it.
Get it?

The doctors are all out of vaccine. It’s essentially rationed by the government.

Throw a twenty down and give your baby a flu shot, if its so important. The issue is not the money but the availability for infants. Most non-physician places won't give the vaccine to children under 8.

The infant’s doctor’s office is out of the vaccine. Physicians usually get only one shipment of vaccine a year and when it’s gone, it’s gone.

When I last saw my doctor she said that she stronqly recommends the flu shot for diabetics but she can’t offer them because the doctors cannot qet ahold of any vaccine that is for adults. She was hopinq that somebody would have somethinq available sometime...
The feds are in control of this stuff because of Obamacare and socialized medicine ALWAYS ends up with people not beinq able to qet what they need.
It’s a bloody shame that none of us had anythinq serious at risk in the issue of whether we have a foreiqn enemy combatant in our White House who hates us and wants to kill us off... Or at least that’s what the courts insisted. Doesn’t matter if we’re all dead, as lonq as we’re all dead - because as lonq as it’s all of us who are dead none of us suffered any “particularized harm” so it’s none of our business no matter how badly the qovernment screws us all...

This is the state of the USA. Its a very dangerous trend. Life’s basics - housing, health-care, education, even food being regulated by the state, and complex rules created governing distribution according to their formulas - means testing, race testing, identity-group testing i.e.) its all about politics.

Yet, in my part of the country our local drugstores have signs outside advertising low cost flue shots.

The article post says the mom was trying to get the “preservative-free vaccination.”

Absurd and, yes like my daughter's absurd Obamacare. She and her hubby looked over the gov site. Well, for two, they could pay $750/mo with $8000 - $10,000 deduction! They chose to not buy and take the fine. She said in so many words that why pay nearly $10,000 a year for nothing?
