Are there any flu outbreaks in your area? Schools closing or the like? Have you gotten the flu shot, what about your kiddos?

Schools haven't closed here yet... but if things keep going the way they are it may happen yet. 100 kids missing from the high school yesterday, and this is not a big school.

I've been searching high and low for flu shots and can't get them for the boys. I'm not overly worried about myself, but I wanted them to get one. Nobody has them for children tho. I was able to get ahold of the health dept about H1N1 shots and they'll have the schedule of clinics for kids to get one on Monday, so we'll call about that shot then. Hopefully that'll be enough. The shots are just in such short supply this year.

We have all got the standard flu shots we are waiting for the h1n1 here but we should be able to get them next week from what my doctor has said. No schools have closed nothing in news about outbreaks but I know a few people that have had the flu somewhere in their family so its here.

We've had a few school close in the area, but no major closures. From what I hear they think our area is near the peak for the N1H1, but it might come back later in the year.
