H1N1 Vaccine

Ladies-The H1N1 (Swine Flu) vaccine is in town! Beaver Medical does NOT have it yet. However, the Family Care Clinic in Banning (and possibly other places that are Riverside County sponsored) just received the vaccine last Thursday. I had Alexander get the nasal spray this morning, and I got the shot. We were lucky- there was no wait and the immunizations were free. I just filled out a couple forms for each of us and then we were helped right away. No appt needed. The Clinic is located off the 10 frwy on Ramsey St (near Sunset) next to Smart and Final.
The H1N1 flu vaccine is just for high risk people at this point due to limited avail: kids age 2yr-24, pregnant women, people with chronic health problems, people with kids under 6 months of age, (see govt website for complete list). This was not very well advertised, so I thought you all might want to be informed!

Update 11/3:
someone tried to get the vaccine today, and they have already run out! have people call before they go, or check other local county health care clinics.
