Kroger Health To Offer Back To School & Shingles Vaccine Help

July 27, 2024 at 1:00 a.m.


Kroger recently has been thinking about prominent health issues inspired by back-to-school season. If you have any questions about the vaccines needed before classes resume, the clinical team is available to help. The pharmacists and nurse practitioners will ensure that everyone is up-to-date on their needs.
Kroger wants to remind the public vaccines are offered in a place that’s convenient for them, right in their local Kroger.
The Kroger Health team also offers expertise on the shingles vaccine, especially for people who are age 50 or older. Shingles is a painful viral infection that affects approximately 1 million people in the U.S. each year. And, it affects about 1 in every 3 people in the United States in their lifetime. The disease can sometimes lead to serious complications such as vision loss and long-term nerve pain. The Shingles vaccine can significantly reduce a person’s chances of getting the infection and the severity of the illness if one is diagnosed with it.
While customers can choose to walk-in to receive a Shingles vaccine, they are also welcome to make an appointment or kroger.com/health to learn more about vaccine offerings. At Kroger, the Shingles vaccine is available at no charge for most patients with insurance.
