H1N1 Influenza Vaccine

Posted by vinnymeyer On November - 19 - 2009 Subscribe here

We have received our initial allotment of 300 doses of the H1N1 Influenza vaccine from NY State. Because of the limited supply, initially we will be vaccinating:

  • pregnant women
  • persons who live with or provide care for infants aged <6 months (e.g., parents, siblings, and daycare providers)
  • health-care and emergency medical services personnel
  • persons aged 25–64 years who have medical conditions that put them at higher risk for influenza-related complications

We’ve seen a small number of people who have tested positive for Influenza A, although we do NOT know if they had the H1N1 strain.  We’re encouraging our patients who fall under any of the categories above to call the office and arrange a time to come in to get vaccinated.
