[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CVS told me they wouldn't do kids under 8. The advantageous to going to the ped is they will help the child sit still and feel comfortable, and they usually do the leg shot. At a pharmacy, they won't be used to handling children, so you it will be on you to calm your child, and they are going to do it in the arm most likely. But if you have and older elementary kid, go for it, definitely quicker.[/quote] This is not true at all CVS's- you need to find one that does 2 and up. I don't think they do under 2 We did it at CVS and it was advantageous since I could get mine too and I got it first so the kids could see me getting it etc. [/quote] +1 I don't know of any minute clinics in DC proper that will give flu shots to little kids. But, just over the DC border in MD, CVS will do it.[/quote]
