It's important part of childhood - getting shots, and the El Paso's Department of Public Health's immunization program will be giving shots to not only kids but to adults as well this weekend.

On Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Bassett Place Mall, you can get your kids and yourself caught up on important immunization shots.

Vaccines will be $10.00 for kids under 18 or $20.00 for more than one vaccine.

Adults 19 and older can get a flu shot for $35.00.

Some on the shots that you can get will be Dtap, Hepatitis A and B, HIB, PCV-13, IPV, MMR, Varicella, HPV, and Tdap.

If you don't know what any of those do, or even if you or child need them, you can go to Bassett Place tomorrow with your child's immunization record, a picture id, and documentation of guardianship, and find out which immunizations your child needs.
