H1N1 Vaccine Plans

Heard on the Diane Rehm Show, Wednesday October 7: "Up to seven million doses are expected to be available in the U.S. this week. Who's going to get the vaccine, where, and why."
Guests:

• Michael Osterholm, Director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy and Director of the NIH-sponsored Minnesota Center of Excellence for Influenza Research and Surveillance
• Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases/NIH
  
• Robert Pestronk, Executive Director, National Association of County and City Health Officials

This was a very good discussion, and will answer most of your questions about the H1N1 flu vaccine. The college is working to get both the H1N1 and more seasonal flu vaccine on campus. Student Health Services (in Blackboard Oncampus for OC community) gives details. Get information on flu clinics in Lorain County.
