| Issue Summary: |
National and Regional Pharmacy Chain Participation in H1N1 Vaccine Campaign in CA |
| Description of Issue(s): |
The small and large pharmacy chains ordered vaccine from the manufacturer directly. |
| Actions taken to address the issue(s): |
They have been getting their orders filled to an extent. But with supply increasing, their orders should be filled quicker. |
| Outcomes that resulted from actions taken: |
We don't want to have local health departments involved in distributing to pharmacies. That would be way too much to do. |
