H1N1 Vaccine Distribution Update
MADISON - The Department of Health Services (DHS) is providing an
update on the amount of H1N1 vaccine allocated to Wisconsin from the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC allocates, or
assigns, the amount of H1N1 vaccine each state will receive each week.
DHS places orders with the CDC for more than 2,000 public and private
health care providers based on the state's assigned allotment. There is a
lag time between the state receiving its allocation and providers
receiving those doses.
Since the vaccine production has been slower than expected, the
allotments have fluctuated significantly. Currently, Wisconsin has been
allotted a total of 697,700 doses of H1N1 vaccine

Due to limited vaccine, DHS is recommending that local health
departments and health professionals target H1N1 vaccine for those
individuals most-at-risk during the next several weeks as the vaccine
supply continues to fluctuate. DHS recommends that public and private
providers focus vaccination efforts on the following subset of CDC's
target groups:
- Pregnant women
- Persons who live with or provide care for infants age 6 months or
younger (examples: parents, siblings, daycare providers)
- Health care and emergency medical services personnel who have direct
contact with patients or infectious material
- Children age 6 months - 4 years
- Children and adolescents age 5-18 years who have chronic medical
conditions that put them at higher risk for influenza-related
complications
Community vaccination clinics will resume as H1N1 vaccine becomes more
readily available. People may call 2-1-1 to find out an H1N1 or seasonal
influenza vaccine clinic nearest them. A "clinic finder" is also
available online at http://pandemic.wisconsin.gov
or www.wisconsinfluclinic.info.
