Undocumented immigrants eligible for free flu shots – Oklahoma City

Illegal immigrants are eligible for the shots, said Charles Broadway, assistant general counsel for the Health Department. The immigration law, House Bill 1804, goes into effect on Nov. 1 but will not apply to flu vaccinations, Broadway said.”*
