Howard County Health Department officials have scheduled two appointment-only swine flu vaccination clinics for children on Thursday and Friday at the agency's Columbia office at 7178 Gateway Drive.
On Thursday, children with special health needs will be vaccinated by injection from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and on Friday, preschoolers ages 2 to 5 can get the FluMist nasal spray version. Dr. Peter L. Beilenson, Howard's health officer, said the county will accept 200 appointments each day.
Anyone interested may call 410-313-6250 to schedule an appointment. The county is planning additional clinics as more of the vaccine becomes available.

Dr Pete Beilenson is an idiot. This is a national emergency. Asking to make appt is insane. Who is County Executive? I would not vote for this fool. I bet when 50% of student body is missing from school, he will feel like the idiot he is. I bet he and all his family are protected from H1N1 because of his stauts. What a baffoon!
