If you are sick with flu like symptoms, STAY HOME, and call your physician.

H1N1 Flu is similar to regular, seasonal flu.  Since the H1N1 virus is new, there will be separate vaccines this year for H1N1 flu and seasonal flu.  Please get your seasonal flu vaccine from your doctor or pharmacist as soon as possible.  This Flu Clinic Locator allows you to enter your zip code and find out where you can get the seasonal flu shot.

The H1N1 flu vaccine is now widely available.  Visit our Appointments and Flu Clinics page to find out how to get the vaccine. 

There is a lot of information available about H1N1 Flu.  We will try to provide the most helpful information on this page and in the Newsroom.  If you are a medical professional looking for technical information, we will post that in our Medical/Technical Info section.

We have a special page for schools and parents, as well as a page for frequently asked questions (FAQs).  If you can't find the answer to your question, you can submit a new question to CHA.
