New York City has set up a web portal where you can get information about where to get a flu shot, along with forms you can download so your child can get vaccinated for free. If you think you have the flu and don't have a doctor (or can't afford one) the web site provides a widget that tells you where to find a free clinic near you.
Here are a few quick links for further information:
- Who should get the vaccination for both regular flu and the H1N1 virus? Here
- Is the new H1N1 vaccine safe? Here
- What should you do if you get the flu? Here
- What about getting kids vaccinated? Here
