because H1N1 hasn't hit there yet.
Why does the CDC hate the Marshal Islands and America Samoa?
Got my regular flu shot last week and my H1N1 yesterday (or was it Monday?). I'm doing peds over Dec-Jan, and want to be ready for those snot-loving dirty monsters! :D
Got it today and glad I did.
Last night (Tuesday, Nov 3rd) the Washington D.C. Dept of Health held another H1N1 vaccination event at both Hardy Middle School and Woodrow Wilson Sr. High School (Tenleytown). I was the coordinator at the Wilson Sr. High event.
We vaccinated we...
I got the H1N1 Shot in NY on October 15. I didn't notice any short term side effects or issues.
so far from the news here it sounds like this county at least doesn't have any of the shots, just the nasal one. So really even if I wasn't allergic to eggs I probably couldn't get the shot yet. Also back about a month ago I think there were some ...

Hi everyone, I have been working a Fly Car now for 2 years. I also like the concept. In fact, the hospital that I am working in (Bangkok, Thailand) is the only hospital base ambulance that operate this type of vehicle with multi-tasks.
If you work in a "fly car" or "first responder" this is the place for you. Say hello, get to know each other, share experiences good or bad. A good place to vent or just learn what we all do in our regions.
Very interestingly, how do you apply them (ice packs) on the patient ?
