National Immunization Vaccination Week starts Sunday, and local health officials want you protected against the swine flu.

This year’s vaccination week will focus on the H1N1 virus. Southwest Georgia District Public Health Director Dr. Jacqueline Grant says there’s still a good chance you can get swine flu if you haven’t been vaccinated. Grant says there’s still 130 million doses of the vaccine in the U.S., and are urging everyone to get the H1N1 shot or nasal mist as soon as possible.
