More flu shots will be available in January

A while back someone had posted a blog on there being a shortage of flu shots. Now there is going to be a new shipment of 2.6 million vaccines from Aventis-Pasteur coming in January. President Bush said he was working with state and local officials to make sure we that vaccines get distributed to those who need it. The Demand was so high that something had to be done. Even though more vaccines are supposed to come in there still is a high demand for more. There is still a request that those who are in the "high- risk" group have access to the vaccine. Even though there are going to be 2.6 million more vaccines there is still a shortage, but this is better than before.
