THE GAZETTE-TIMES, Heppner. OR. Thursday. Oct 7. 1978. PS 3 A tentative schedule has been compiled. It is subject to change Pat Wright, Morrow County Health nurse, was prodded to term the Swine Flu vaccination a "first come, first serve" program this week when less than half the expected doses arrived. But. Ms. Wright said, the vaccination clinics and schedules will go on in hopes that more vaccine will be delivered. An expected 2,000 doses of mono valent A-Swine strain turned oui to be iiaif that amount. And, the bi valent vaccine, for A-New Jersey and A-Victoria, for "high risk" people over 65, which was supposed to number 1,000, ended up at only 200 doses. Ms. Wright said another 100 doses of the bi-valent vaccine a week Is expected to be delivered. She also said a minor reaction could occur. The reaction, she said, should occur within 24 or 48 hours and will be represented by a slight temperature that could reach 100 degrees. "It will be nothing like the flu," she said, adding that a sore arm may accompany the temperature. The Health Department has received clearance for vaccinations of children, ages three to 18, that are chronically ill. This will be on doctor's recommendations. Ms. Wright has 50 doses of this special split virus vaccine that she says, should take care of the county. Vaccinations started Tuesday afternoon at Pioneer Memorial because of the shortage of vaccine. Date Location Thurs., Oct. 7 School Admin. Bldg.
