Four free H1N1 vaccine clinics for people at highest risk and who can't afford to pay

KING COUNTY, WA - Public Health is opening up four free H1N1 vaccine clinics, beginning Saturday, December 5, and again on Wednesday, December 9, as a way to provide access to people at highest risk for H1N1 influenza (swine flu) who cannot afford to pay. Future clinic dates will be scheduled as more vaccine becomes available.

"As more vaccine comes into the community, we're continuing to allocate limited amounts to people without insurance or who can't afford to pay," said Dr. David Fleming, Director and Health Officer for Public Health - Seattle & King County. "We encourage people to seek H1N1 vaccine through their health care providers or through pharmacies if they can afford the administrative cost or if insurance covers it."
