HUNTINGTON — H1N1, or swine flu, clinics scheduled in Cabell County are open to all high risk individuals and are targeted to people who work or live in Cabell County or the City of Huntington as well as Marshall University students in the high risk group.

High risk individuals include people who are six months to 24 years old, pregnant women and nursing mothers, people who live with or care for children under six months old, adults 24 to 64 years who have chronic health conditions, and health care workers who provide direct patient care with acutely ill patients.

People 65 and older are not in a target group recommended to get the earliest doses of 2009 H1N1 vaccine, said Elizabeth Ayers, public information officer for the Cabell-Huntington Health Department. This is because people age 65 and older are least likely to get sick with the 2009 H1N1 virus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Clinics are scheduled:

11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5, Fellowship Baptist, 3661 U.S. 60 East, Barboursville.

10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 11, Cabell County DMV.

9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 21, Cabell Midland High School.

10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 1, Cam Henderson Center at Marshall University.

10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 2, Cam Henderson Center.

Adults must show proof of age. Both mist and injectable forms of the vaccine are available.

Anyone currently taking an antibiotic must wait until they’ve completed the antibiotic before getting the H1N1 vaccine. You should not get the vaccine if you have been on Tamiflu or other antiviral in the past 48 hours.

Children who are brought to clinics by someone other than their parent or legal guardian must have a signed permission statement from the parent or guardian.
