H1N1 Vaccines soon to Arrive in Beltrami Co.

Beltrami Co., MN - In a matter of days Beltrami Co. will receive a limited supply of H1N1 vaccines.

The Community Health Preparedness Team wants everyone to know there will be a limited supply of vaccinations available to the public.

The H1N1 vaccinations will be staged by groups. The first supplies will be given to those in most need, which are children with chronic medical conditions and pregnant women.

The limited supply of vaccines should be arriving in less than a week, according to Beltrami Co.

In addition, supplies will be arriving over a period of several weeks and Beltrami Co. will be advising the public of the next round of vaccines that will be available and to whom they will be available.

Anyone with questions is urged to contact the Beltrami Co. Flu Hotline at (218) 333-8145 or visit www.health.state.mn.us and click on the Find A Flu Shot page.
