H1N1 Vaccines

The first H1N1 vaccines went out today. There will be 10 to 20 million doses going out per week for the next few months. In a day, by noon, about 100 go out in one hospital. The main concern for the H1N1, and those who should be getting the vaccines first, are pregnant women, children, young adults, and people with chronic lung disease, heart disease, or diabetes. There have been about 340,000 confirmed cases and more than 4,100 reported deaths.

    Grade: 9.5/10
    • Poorly worded sentence: "The main concern for the H1N1... are pregnant women..." Who is concerned?
