Question: Does rationing of flu vaccines extend to "flu-mist" nasal vacc.
Just wondering if anyone knows. People that I work with closely are already getting the flu....second one came down with it today. Since flu season, they tell me, hits here in about January, I predict it is going to get ugly. I want to do everything I can to keep from getting it.

1. No Flu mist should be available for those who can use it.

2. only two million doses, right?
so i expect it will be rationed.
IMHO.

ditto, tamiflu antiviral pills, i suspect.

What general area are you seeing flu in already? Does the CDC Report weekly identify areas?

3. This is in Tallahassee, FL at Florida State University
Update: I called over to the school medical center and talked with the nurse there about it. She said nobody was even going to get flumist this year. Nothing! I told her that campus was going to be a mess. She said she new and BE SURE TO GET BUSH OUT OF THE WHITEHOUSE SO THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE!!!
