Local health care providers are
receiving flu vaccine orders, and are NOT currently
experiencing a shortage. |

As of October 2, 2007, there are no
restrictions on flu vaccinations. Anyone who would like a
flu shot or FluMist® may get it, and the Nevada State Health
Division strongly encourages all Nevadans to consider
getting vaccinated this season. |
