"Wouldn't that suggest that seasonal flu vaccine should be made available with those over 65 as a priority? (seaonal flu vaccine shortage alert!)"

Exactly! My mother's lung doctor informed us that they weren't getting any more seasonal flu vaccine. In other words, doctors are not being given access to THAT vaccine. He advised her to get the flu shot anywhere she could and as soon as she could. Apparently outfits like drug stores and grocery stores that offer the vaccine have the most supply, vs. physicians, because they pre-order in bulk. The government is orchestrating this entire fiasco.

We got our seasonal flu shots from the Jewel Osco. They had vaccine weeks before our doctor did...the pharmacists were excellent and so well informed.

There are signs everywhere that there is no seasonal flu available here in Texas as well.

People who don’t know better went and got that one thinking it will protect against H1N1
