CHILDREN FIRST: The Obama daughters have been vaccinated for H1N1 flu, Michelle Obama's press secretary said in a post on the White House blog Tuesday.
###
Emphasizing that the president's children did not receive any special treatment, Catherine McCormick-Lelyveld wrote: "Malia and Sasha were both vaccinated for H1N1 last week, after the vaccine became available to Washington, DC schoolchildren.
President and Mrs. Obama have not yet been vaccinated for H1N1, and they will wait until the needs of the priority groups identified by the CDC – including young people under the age of 24, pregnant women, and people with underlying conditions – have been met.
The girls' H1N1 vaccine was administered by a White House physician, who applied for and received the vaccine from the DC Department of Health using the same process as every other vaccination site in the District."
Yeah, I just bet they have.

We’ve been asked about whether the President, Mrs. Obama, and Sasha and Malia have received their H1N1 and seasonal flu vaccines. All four members of the Obama family have received their seasonal flu vaccine. Malia and Sasha were both vaccinated for H1N1 last week, after the vaccine became available to Washington, DC schoolchildren.
President and Mrs. Obama have not yet been vaccinated for H1N1, and they will wait until the needs of the priority groups identified by the CDC – including young people under the age of 24, pregnant women, and people with underlying conditions – have been met.
The girls’ H1N1 vaccine was administered by a White House physician, who applied for and received the vaccine from the DC Department of Health using the same process as every other vaccination site in the District.
While the initial distribution of vaccine is being administered to priority target groups, there are steps every family can take to help protect against H1N1 and seasonal flu.
Remember to check Flu.gov for the latest on vaccine availability near you, steps you can take to protect your family, and what to do if you or a loved one gets the flu.

Saline solution.
“Emphasizing that the president’s children did not receive any special treatment...”
Well, I heard that the vaccine works much better for those that eat Kobe beef.
I cannot believe they are allowing banned substances to be in this vaccine, its quite scary.
On Sunday, it was reported the daughters hadn’t been vaccinated because they weren’t in the high-risk group.
Since Raila Odinga’s favorite cousin is a pathological liar, can any decent American believe a word that he or that wife of his have to say?
I don’t believe it.
Their oldest daughter is an asthmatic, according
to previous reports. I can’t imagine, if that’s true,
a responsible parent not having them vaccinated, in
light of the children who’ve died who’s health was
compromised with other conditions and made deadly
when they got this flu.
Ouch.
I don’t believe it either.
Guess they’ve been reading FR and thought they should take preemptive measures...I agree, I doubt that they’ve been vaccinated.
According to one of the FNC reports, any
parent should ask what’s in the particular
formula the doc has .. and there IS a version
without mercury/thimerosal, which a parent
can request.
Saline and antivirals look a lot alike to the camera.
Its called a rivulet or something like that?
I think I heard it was the oral vaccine that didn’t have it.
BS!! I’m not believing it for a minute. Like Joe Wilson said, “YOU LIE”!
adjuvant
I’m 62 and disabled with asthma and I haven’t heard from my doctor yet...
I highly doubt she’s asthmatic. Probably mild seasonal allergies, if that. Just an excuse not to have any pets since they were born. Lazy as*es. Bet they ditch Bo when they get out of the WH and have to take care of him themselves.
