Does anyone know when H1N1 shots will be available here?

My ob/gyn recommends I get one as soon as they are available, but I haven't found a good website that will tell me when and where they are available.

Re: Does anyone know when H1N1 shots will be available here?

  • I don't know how else to say this and it will come across as rude, so i'm sorry ahead of time, but your Dr. is going to know before we will.  DFW has already received the first shipment and they ran out quickly, no clue when the next shipment arrives.
  • As far as I know, the first shipment was only the nasal spray and pregnant women can't have that one.

    I don't know when they will be here, but my doctor told me they would be notified as soon as they were arriving and he would send a letter to patients either telling them to make an appointment to get them at his office or telling the patients he wasn't getting any and they would need to go to the health department.

    I'm sure your doctor will notify you as soon as it happens. I don't think anyone has a clear idea of when we will get them here.

  • yeah the first shipment that came in was the nasal spray which PG women can't get. i think the first set of injectable vax won't be here until November...

    I get your point but so far even my Dr's office hasn't been much help as far as when or where they will be.  I was just seeing if someone here would know of a good website to keep watch on.  I called 211 today and all they said was there is no information for this area yet but I could call back daily because it is constantly updated.  I was just hoping to avoid having to call people daily or even weekly for that matter.  Looks like it can't be avoided though.

    And yes, the first shipment was only nasal spray which pregnant women can't take.

    My dr's nurse today told me they have no plan of attack of how they will notify their patients (I'm a little shocked by that).  They requested to receive the shots, but even if they get them they don't know yet how they will get word out to their patients (waiting list, notify everyone, or just if you are lucky to call at the right time).  I guess I will just keep calling around for now and hope for the best.  Thanks!
