Hot Topics
Written by Jennifer Moorer   
February is the peak of the flu season, and it is not too late to get your H1N1 flu shot.  H1N1 flu vaccine is available at your local county health department.  Also, children under age 10 who received a first dose of H1N1 vaccine need a second dose.  H1N1 vaccine is free to individuals, so get your H1N1 flu shot from your county health department right away.

Together, we can fight the flu. Call 1-888-H1N1-INFO (
1-888-4161-4636) for more information.

Influenza is unpredictable and officials do not know the likelihood of a future wave of H1N1 flu. However, vaccination is the most important step in protecting against influenza.
