We currently have supplies of 2026-2027 flu vaccine and recommend that everyone aged 6 months and older get the flu shot. Make an appointment by calling 303-602-3520 or schedule a vaccine-only appointment via MyChart. If you have Medicaid or private insurance, the flu vaccine has no co-pay. If you lack health insurance, we offer no- and low-cost flu vaccine.
We will start COVID-19 vaccines for adults on Oct. 14, with youth vaccines avaiable in late October.
What is the flu (influenza)?
The flu, also known as influenza, is caused by germs that pass easily from one person to another. Unlike the common cold, the flu can be severe and even life threatening. Each year, more than 200,000 people in the United States are hospitalized from medical problems that develop because they have the flu.
