OKLAHOMA CITY -- A statewide "Vaccination Blitz" is scheduled this Saturday, November 7, as Oklahoma’s county health departments work to vaccinate as many Oklahomans against H1N1 flu as time and vaccine supplies allow.

“The H1N1 pandemic continues to be widespread in Oklahoma and otherwise healthy individuals are becoming ill and, in some cases, being hospitalized,” said State Epidemiologist Dr. Kristy Bradley. “While we don’t have as much vaccine as we want, what we do have will be available this Saturday to Oklahomans in the priority groups. School age children and pregnant women have been especially vulnerable to this influenza virus, so we continue to encourage vaccination of persons who fall into these categories.”

Priority groups for the H1N1 vaccine include:

  • All children ages 6 months to 18 years
  • Pregnant women
  • Custodial parents of infants less than 6 months of age
  • Front-line health care workers who have direct patient contact with acutely ill persons
  • Adults 19 – 64 years of age with chronic medical conditions such as diabetes, asthma & other chronic lung disease, chronic heart disease, cancer, and other conditions that suppress the immune system.

People seeking vaccinations will be screened to ensure that they meet a priority group definition for H1N1 vaccine and to verify Oklahoma residency. The doses offered include both nasal spray and injectable vaccines.

For up-to-date information about Vaccination Blitz locations, call your local county health department , visit the Oklahoma State Department of Health Web site, or call the Oklahoma State Department of Health toll-free H1N1 hotline at: 1-866-278-7134. Phones are answered Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
