Flu shots

From the ministry of Health Services website:

If you are at high-risk and wish to receive the H1N1 vaccine, but are not able to attend any of the currently listed clinics in your area, contact your local Public Health Unit or your family physician for more information on where you can get vaccinated.

As of Monday October 26, 2009, the pandemic H1N1 influenza vaccine will be available first to those people who would benefit most from immunization:

-1.individuals under 65 years of age with chronic disease

-1.pregnant women

-1.individuals - including First Nations people - living in remote or isolated communities.

These groups are at high-risk for suffering complications from pandemic H1N1 infection. British Columbians who fall into these groups who need and want the H1N1 vaccine, and for whom the seasonal flu shot is also recommended, will be able to receive both at the same time.

People who are not at highest risk are requested to wait until mid-November to get immunized when BC receives its full orders of H1N1 vaccine.
