| It's great that 35% percent of Post readers have either gotten or planned to get the H1N1 flu shot. Getting the shot is the best way to protect ourselves and our loved ones from infection with H1N1. Hospitalization rates from H1N1 are disproportionately higher for African Americans than for non-Hispanic whites. The H1N1 flu shots are made by the same companies that make seasonal flu shots, and are safe. Free H1N1 flu shots will be given Saturday, January 16 from 10:00am to 3:00pm in the parking lot of Hal Marshall Annex, 618 N. College St. |
