This web page linked shows the fee schedule for Sumter County vaccinations for $15, and the Shingles vaccine is listed:

Also see other fees for health services available there. And check Marion and Lake Counties' health departments, too.

You read that wrong...
The cost at the health department is the cost of the vaccine including any shipping or handling cost with an ADDITIONAL charge of $15. Thus if the cost for the health department to acquire the vaccine is $200 the charge to the patient is $215.
