I was unable to locate anyone in Orange County that had
the flu vaccine available for me and my family. The state
health agencies do have some limited quantities on hand,
but are restricting its use to people who are 60 and older.

"but are restricting its use to people who are 60 and older."

I got my shot before I turned 60 but, lol, I turned 60, 11-22-2003.

I have had a headache for two days now that I can't shake. I never have headaches. I had 12 people in from, Houston, New Orleans and Indianopolis for Thanksgiving. I think I must have caught something from that crowd. I hope it's not Hepatitis A from the cooked green onions.

"restricting its use to people who are 60 and older."

that makes so much sense seeing how 11 CHILDREN have DIED from the flu....yep, lets take care of the seniors first.....geez......

I will tell you why this shortage is happening....last year or the year before there was a long delay in getting the vaccine to health care workers...the people in and among the sickest people in the country....

we couldn't get any vaccines at all.....but the govt. made sure it had its national forest and park people vaccinnated weeks before nurses could get vaccinated...

the govt should have an orderly distribution system where the vaccines go FIRST to the people on the front lines, then the sickly, the very young and the elderly, and not to some guy collecting tickets at a national park....

imagine the same sort of ridiculous allocation happened this year as well...
