A limited supply of injectable and FluMist H1N1 vaccines are available through public clinics in Newburyport, Amesbury, and Salisbury.

The targeted populations for this round of H1N1 vaccines are pregnant women, immune-compromised children, and primary caregivers to infants.

Residents of the three communities may attend any of the clinics and need not be a resident of the community hosting the clinic. However, all vaccines will be given by reservation only; walk-ins will not receive vaccinations.

These clinics will be held this Wednesday from 9 to 11 a.m. at the Newburyport Emergency Operations Center, 59 Low St., Newburyport; 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. at Amesbury Town Hall, 62 Friend St.; and 5 to 7 p.m. at the Salisbury Fire Station, 37 Lafayette Road.

The second round of H1N1 clinics will be for healthy children 2 to 9 years old. The FluMist nasal application will be administered at these clinics, and they will be held Monday, Nov. 30: 9 to 11 a.m., Newburyport Emergency Operations Center; 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. at the Amesbury Town Hall; and 5 to 7 p.m. at the Salisbury Fire Station.

Reservations for all clinics should be made by calling the Newburyport Health Department, 978-465-8562.
