KU recommends pregnant women see their obstetricians for the H1N1 flu vaccine. Before coming to the H1N1 clinic, it is recommended that patients download and complete a vaccine consent form at the student health website.

Nearly 1,100 doses of H1N1 vaccine were distributed at student-only clinics Nov. 6 and Nov. 20 on campus. Approximately 1,700 doses will be available on Friday.
