We encourage you to visit our Web site at http://www.cdph.ca.gov where you can find more information on preventing the spread of the disease and the availability of H1N1 vaccines throughout the state of California.

And if you have any questions for yourself or your readers that the site cannot answer, please feel free to drop me an e-mail personally and I would be happy to direct you toward the proper information.
