 H1N1 Flu Information

H1N1 Flu Vaccination Locations

H1N1 Flu Vaccine is arriving in increasing amounts, so now all Californians are encouraged to seek the H1N1 flu vaccine. See H1N1 Vaccine Supply Information and Vaccine Priority Groups list.

Seasonal Flu and H1N1 Flu vaccinations: The seasonal flu vaccine is not expected to protect against the 2009 H1N1 Influenza virus. However, getting your seasonal flu shot, avoiding crowds, and following public health advice regarding school closures are important before and after a H1N1 Flu vaccine is available because they can prevent the spread of other viruses that cause respiratory infections.
