A students-only flu clinic this Thursday, Oct. 15 will offer seasonal flu vaccines in the Student Center beginning at noon. The vaccine will protect against the most common variety of seasonal flu but not against swine flu (influenza A subtype H1N1). Because of a seasonal flu vaccine shortage, additional clinics planned at graduate dormitories have been deferred, MIT Medical said in a press release. MIT has not yet received shipments of the H1N1 vaccine. For more, see http://medweb.mit.edu/flu/.
