Better still they have to figure out something for storage. Nice work government on this one. It makes it easy for clinics to notify high risk patients--NOT.

People probably aren't getting it because they aren't considered "high risk". My clinic has the vaccines but I can't get one because I'm not in that category. My 1-year-old is in the high risk category, but also can't get the vaccine because they don't have the preservative-free.
