2009 H1N1 Influenza Vaccine
The H1N1 flu vaccine shortage is being felt nationally and locally, despite public health officials working vigorously to get the vaccine distributed.

University Health Services (UHS) has ordered a substantial amount of the H1N1 vaccine, which has not yet arrived. Due to national and statewide distribution delays, the initial shipment will be limited in quantity and subsequent deliveries may be sporadic. As a result of this delay UHS will target the initial supply to the UC Berkeley student population, prioritizing the most at-risk individuals established by public health guidelines.

UC Berkeley faculty and staff are urged to contact their primary care providers to receive the H1N1 vaccine. Faculty and staff whose primary care provider is University Health Services, through Health Net, will be eligible to receive the vaccine at UHS and will be prioritized following established priority guidelines.
