BOISE -- The Central District Health Department is expanding the number of people who qualify for the H1N1 vaccine. Those
changes go into effect at the two Ada County Point of Dispensing clinics effective immediately.
Priority groups now include:
- Pregnant women
- People who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age
- Health care and emergency medical services personnel
- Persons between the ages of 6 months and 24 years old
- People age 25 through 64 who are at higher risk for 2009 H1N1 because of chronic health disorders or compromised immune
systems.
The clinics are located at the former K-Mart store at 1001 Park Center Blvd. and the former Comp USA store at 1195 N Milwaukee
St.
The clinics will remain open until 6 p.m. or until vaccine runs out. Both clinics started the day at 10 a.m. with more than 2800 doses
of H1N1 flu vaccine available.
