People looking for extra protection against the H1N1 strain of flu -- commonly, though incorrectly, called "swine flu" -- will soon have the opportunity to be vaccinated, Randy Carney told WBTA this morning.
The first doses are expected to arrive in Genesee County later this week, the interim county health chief said.
The vaccine will be distributed through healthcare providers, but people without their own doctor will be able to receive the vaccine from the county health department.
But the supply is limited. The county will receive only about 100 to 200 doses this week, with more on the way. Federal officials assure citizens that there will be plenty of vaccine to go around.
