We currently have an ample supply of H1N1 vaccine (shot AND FluMist) for all ages.   We will continue to keep you informed of our supply situation.

Remember that this Novel flu vaccine will require 2 doses separated by 4 weeks for children under age 10.  Please call  to schedule your second dose within the week it is due. 

Although the peak of the H1N1 flu outbreak seems to have passed, it is very likely that the virus will persist in our community through the remainder of the winter season.  For this reason, we still recommend that your child (6 months old or older) receive the vaccine.

Some of you have had questions about the safety and reliability of the H1N1 (swine) flu vaccine.  Go to www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/vaccination/general.htm for further information.

If your child has had a flu-like illness but was never tested, we recommend vaccination, as we cannot be sure that the flu-like illness was truly swine flu.

We will continue to keep our site updated regarding our supply of vaccine.
