UPDATE: Plainfield's 2nd Swine Flu clinic





The flyer for Plainfield's second H1N1 (Swine Flu) clinic was spotted in the City Hall rotunda on Tuesday. Two skimpy little piles of ten or so on an otherwise naked pickup table -- one in English, one in Spanish (evidently the Robinson-Briggs administration has never learned the old trick of printing the English and Spanish versions back-to-back, saving trees and the need for two piles of flyers). No word on whether any of Plainfield's doses are included in the recall announced on Tuesday.

No flyers were found at the Health Center or the Library, suggesting you must make a pilgrimage to City Hall if you want the details.

Even if most of the 500 doses dispensed in November were to infants and children who need a second 'booster' shot, the City will still be faced with having about 1,000 doses unused after Saturday's clinic -- unless they pull off a big publicity push.

Not likely from the evidence of past efforts.

Why do the citizens of Plainfield continue to put up with this waste of a mayor. Obviously she doesn't care about the health of the people of Plainfield, or she would have delegated someone to make sure the news got out. I'm going because I have a heart condition and should be eligible for the shot. Thanks to blogs to get the word out.
