Mom and I went in this morning so that mom could get the regular seasonal flu shot and the H1N1 shot, the health unit was doing a public health clinic at our
civic center. All the fliers sent out said it was for everybody, and it was from 8am to 6pm, we get there and find out they changed it to 9am to 7pm, and only
for at risk/high risk people. I can't have the shots because of allergies, but we figured mom would be considered high risk because she has only one
working lung and asthma, they turned her away because she is over 65(she's 74), saying that she should have some natural immunity to H1N1 from previous
exposure at some point in her lifetime, if she had been under 65 they would have given her the shot. They wouldn't even give her the regular flu shot.
We have several indian reserves in the area, we live between three of them. Everyone on the reserves that wanted to, got both the flu shots last week.
