Posted:

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - As of Sunday evening, the City of Lubbock Health Department does not have the H1N1 flu-vaccine.  Texas only had a limited suppfly of the new vaccine against H1N1 or Swine Flu. 

When the Lubbock Health Department receives thier next supply of the H1N1-vaccine, it will be offered through outreach clinics, not at the Health Department building.  The H1N1-vaccine is different from the seasonal flu-vaccine, so persons at risk are encouraged to get both.
