[ARCHIVED] H1N1 Vaccine Allocation

The Dubuque County Health Department and health care providers within the community are receiving numerous inquiries from citizens wanting the H1N1 vaccine.

As a reminder, Dubuque County is receiving weekly allocations of H1N1 vaccine from the Iowa Department of Public Health, the first supplies are being used for health care workers and pregnant women.

As the vaccine is allocated to states on a staggered basis over the coming weeks, Dubuque County public health officials will continually update information about vaccine availability and vaccine sites.

A statewide toll-free hotline has been established for public questions about seasonal and H1N1 influenza at 1-800-447-1985. More information can also be found at www.idph.state.ia.us.
