Seasonal Flu Vaccine Clinics
Supplies of seasonal flu vaccine are very limited.
Because more people turned out earlier than usual, and in greater numbers this season, the supply of seasonal flu vaccine is very limited, and we are not expecting new supplies in any large amounts. There will be fewer public clinics as existing supplies are used up, and many provider offices do not have any.
