Seasonal and H1N1 Flu Vaccine Updates:

January 5, 2010: We currently have a fairly good supply of both H1N1 and seasonal injectable flu vaccine for any child over 6 months of age. We do not have, nor will we be getting any more, nasal flu vaccine. Remember that children under the age of 10 need 2 doses of the H1N1 vaccine (at least 21 days apart) to be fully protected. Please call the office for an appointment.

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR OUR WEBSITE TO KEEP UP WITH THE CONSTANT FLOW OF INFORMATION REGARDING THE RECENT OUTBREAK OF H1N1 FLU. WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO FREQUENTLY CHECK THE CDC, THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS, AND THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES WEBSITES FOR UP TO THE MINUTE UPDATES.
