The Walla Walla Flu Round-Up was to run Oct. 20, 21, 22, but to supply limitations and demand of the shots this year they ran out of the Children’s annual flu vaccine around 4pm Oct. 21. If you were not in the childrens age group they were able to continue the vaccines through the evening.
According to a Oct. 22
TWEET (Walla Walla County Public Health) – “Due to refrigeration failure NO annual influenza vaccine available @ Fairgrounds today-Unknown when/if additional vaccine will be available”
We were told that some local pharmacies may still have the children's annual flu vaccine. It is reported that Shopko on Rose St. in Walla Walla still has some and they may be able to bill your insurance for a portion of the cost.
H1N1
According to a separate TWEET – “600 doses 2009 A(H1N1) Swine flu vaccine available at Fairgrounds today. Administered to CDC Priority List ONLY @
tinyurl.com/ykgl9ve”
It sounds like they still have the H1N1 Vaccine but will administer to those in the CDC Priority List.
