Pinehurst Medical Clinic
H1N1 Flu Vaccine
PMC will be receiving the H1N1 vaccine. This vaccine will be administered following the strict guidelines outlined by the Center for Diseases Control. We will have the injectable vaccine only. If you fall into those patients at risk for H1N1 you will receive a phone call from this Clinic asking you if you want to receive the vaccine. Please do not call and ask when the vaccine will be available since we do not have specific dates of delivery. At first the amount of vaccine will be minimal and the delivery dates sporadic. This is all based on the government delivery system and not our request for vaccine. As we progress through this process it is our understanding that the vaccine will become more readily available for all patients.
Thank you for your patience in this process and for allowing us to be a partner in your health care.
