Only about a third of adults who have tried to get a swine flu vaccine have been able to get it, according to a new national poll. That's true even for people are at extra risk for severe complications and should be at the front of the line. The numbers are about the same for parents who tried to get the vaccine for their higher-risk children, the Harvard School of Public Health poll found.

Health officials are holding free H1N1 flu vaccinations throughout  the Bay Area Saturday, but the vaccines will only be available for people at  the highest risk for illness from the virus. Alameda, Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz are among the  counties hosting clinics. Due to limited supplies of the vaccines, only pregnant women,  young children, and people with chronic medical conditions or compromised  immune systems will be eligible to receive the vaccine.

The San Jose Unified School District is taking the first step to administer H1N1-Swine Flu vaccines to all students. KRON 4’s Will Tran was at Anne Darling Elementary School on Thursday, when the district sent home vaccine permission slips that must be signed by parents and returned by November 12th.

Napa County has received 2,800 doses of the H1N1 flu vaccine, most  of which will go to local obstetricians and gynecologists who serve pregnant  women, according to county health officials. The doses arrived Friday, Napa County spokeswoman Elizabeth Emmett  said. There are 1,500 doses of adult vaccine without preservatives,  which are appropriate for pregnant women and other adults, county Public  Health Officer Dr. Karen Smith said.
