Note: Currently, the demand for H1N1 vaccine is outweighing local and national supply. That’s why some Public Health vaccine clinics may reach capacity earlier than expected and need to close earlier than the posted hours. If you are not in an H1N1 Priority Group, please wait to get vaccinated until vaccine supplies increase. More H1N1 vaccine will be available in the next several days and weeks at some chain pharmacies, private health care providers, and community clinics.

The public H1N1 vaccination clinics are for people in the established Priority Groups who have no other usual source of care (see Director's message below).

If you are going to a Public Health H1N1 vaccine clinic, fill out this vaccination form ahead of time.
