The Tulsa Health Department will begin offering seasonal flu vaccinations October 3.
Health officials remind residents that getting vaccinated yearly is the single best was to prevent getting the flu.
The health department suggests all individuals over the age of 6 months be vaccinated against the flu this year.
New this year, THD says the high dose vaccine is recommended for everyone over 65.
