GREENCASTLE -- The Putnam County Health Department will be conducting an H1N1 flu vaccine clinic Nov. 4 and 5 for children ages 6 months to 6 years and pregnant women who are Putnam County residents.

The clinic will be held in the gymnasium at the Courthouse Annex (Jones School), 209 W. Liberty St. The hours will be 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Nov. 4 and 1 to 7 p.m. Nov. 5.

Clinic hours will be dependent on the availability of vaccine. Both H1N1 vaccine "shots" and intranasal "mist" will be available at these clinics on a first come first serve basis.

Again, this H1N1 flu vaccine clinic is open only to children ages 6 months to 6 years of age and pregnant women.

Questions regarding this clinic and H1N1 response in Putnam County can be referred to the Putnam County Health Department 653-5210.
