Swine Flu vaccines are being given to everyone. So far, only 50,000 adults and children have been vaccinated against H1N1 flu countywide. An additional 94,000 doses of H1N1 vaccines are expected to be shipped to private and public providers in Los Angeles County this week. The "priority groups" were the ones to get the vaccination for sure. Those people are pregnant women; people living with or caring for infants under 6 months old; emergency-medical-services personnel and healthcare workers; children and young adults ages 6 months to 24; and those 25 to 64 years old with chronic medical conditions such as heart or lung disease, asthma, diabetes, or weakened immune systems.
