Bucks County Public Meeting August 22, 2009

  


 

Bucks County – Make your voice heard on a decision facing Americans about the H1N1 vaccine!
 

 
  

 
In July, the Secretary of Health and Human Services announced that the federal government expects to initiate a voluntary fall vaccination program against the 2009 H1N1 flu virus.  The CDC will help state and local health organizations develop the vaccination program and are working to decide what should be the scope of the program for vaccinating Americans against the novel H1N1 pandemic influenza virus.
 
The CDC is asking for public discussion, deliberation and input as the agency considers whether to simply make vaccines available to those seeking immunization, to promote vaccination to those most at risk or to implement a widespread immunization program.
 
Space is limited. Registration is required for participation and you must be able to attend the meeting for the entire day.
 

 
Participating Organizations: Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) | National Association of County & City Health Officials (NACCHO) | Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) | Pennsylvania Department of Health | Bucks County Health Department | University of Nebraska Public Policy Center | The Keystone Center
