UD announces H1N1 clinics for students, public
The University of Dayton has announced two H1N1 immunization clinics for this week, one for UD students and the other for Montgomery County residents in targeted high-risk groups.
The first clinic, from 4-6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 18, is only for UD students ages 24 or younger. The vaccinations will be given in the UD RecPlex’s MAC gym
Students who wish to receive the vaccine should bring their student ID and wear clothing that allows their upper arm to be easily exposed. Those without a student ID will not be permitted to receive the vaccine.
The second clinic, from 2-6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 19, is open to the public in all targeted groups. The vaccinations will be given at UD Arena, 1801 Edwin C. Moses Blvd. in Dayton. The university is not sponsoring this clinic.
Targeted groups include pregnant women; people who live with or care for infants under 6 months of age; health care and emergency medical services personnel; people ages 6 months through 24 years; and people ages 25 to 64 who have chronic medical conditions such as lung or heart disease, diabetes or other immuno-compromised conditions.
Both clinics are free while vaccine supplies last.
UD expects to receive additional H1N1 vaccine and will schedule another clinic for students after Thanksgiving.
People wishing to receive the H1N1 vaccine on Thursday at the public clinic must complete a consent form.

Its amazing that adult students can get the vaccine, but law enforcement is made to wait. LE officers have always been considered first responders and many respond on medic calls with their local FD. Yet, LE Officers have not been included with the rest of the first responders. My department was scheduled to get the vaccine this week, but that was cancelled due to a shortage. We now know where our vaccinations went.

Your Vaccines? What makes you think they were your Vaccines? You have a sense of entitlement. If you were smart, you wouldn’t even get the vaccine unless you want to be paralyzed for the rest of your life.

Oh yes Donna, very intelligent! There have been hundreds of thousands who have received the vaccine, and you are saying they are all paralyzed now?

If you did the research you would see just how many people are affected. You never hear about it for a reason. Its all kept quiet as not to cause panic. I am a Dr and I know exactly what I am talking about. We are told to keep it under wraps because if people knew the truth, it wouldn’t be a safe place to be with the average coping skills of most people.
