Health care workers, pregnant women, and children are on the priority list. The
first weekly shipment of H1N1 nasal mist vaccines began arriving Monday. The
City expects receiving limited batches of 68,000 vaccines per week through
October. Next month, more than 1 million doses are anticipated to be followed by
another 2 million in December.
According to a Harvard University poll, only half of U.S. adults plan to get
vaccinated.
Schools are to begin handing out swine flu inoculation consent forms for
students to give their parents within a few weeks. Students should start
receiving vaccinations by the end of the month.
