Swine flu inoculations for
40,000 University faculty,
staff and students will begin
at the HUB ballroom Nov. 8,
according to Dr. Robert
Wirag of the Health
Education Office.
Wirag said the inoculation
program will last until Nov.
15 and will be set, up on an
alphabetical schedule similar
to registration (see table).
The innoculation program
will be part of Phase Two of
the Pennsylvania Depart
ment of Health's Statewide
Influenza Immunization
Campaign. Phase Two is
designed for the general adult
population, while Phase One
was aimed at medical high
risk groups.
The Phase Two vaccine will
contain killed A New Jersey
(swine flu) viruses. It will not
provide protection against
other forms of influenza.
Dr. John A. Hargleroad 11,
director of University Health
Services, said timing was a
critical concern for
University officials. Phase
Two inoculations in Centre
County will. not begin until
after Nov. 15, and Hargleroad
said that because of final
exams that would be "a heck
of a week" to start the
program.
Wirag added that those who
are allergic to eggs and egg
products; or who have a high
fever, should not be
inoculated. Hemophiliacs and
others with bleeding disor
ders, or who are on . an
ticoagulant therapy, should
see a privatp.physician. Also,
anyone who has had a
previous regular flu shot
should wait at least 14 days
before getting the swine flu
shot.
Dr. Leonard Bachman,'
Pennsylvania Secretary of
Health, said it takes from 10
days to three weeks after
