My OB is not getting them either.

Im getting them tonight at an office in Mt Sinai - it's a family practice office and they have mercury free - # is 331-3400.

Good Luck!

Re: Has anyone gotten the swine flu vaccine?

I was supposed to get it on Monday, but they didn't get as many doses as they ordered. They are giving it to people based on their due dates. They will call me when more becomes available.

I just got back from my appointment with Suffolk OB...they have them. I declined it but am now having second thoughts and might go back and get it.

Re: Has anyone gotten the swine flu vaccine?

I got mine yesterday here at work - we have medical here in the office for when we're sick and stuff so they got them in. Was not the mercury free one though but I called OB and he said to definitely get it. His office ordered 400 and only got in 100 so he said if I could get it elsewhere to go ahead and get it.

Been wondering if DH should get seasonal flu shot and H1N1. Going to ask OB about that.

I have been looking around as well with no luck. My OB's office is supposed to get it and they have been checking every day but they aren't sure when it will come in.

I got it today. They happen to get a delivery today, so I happen to be in the right place and the right time.

I got mine on Monday from my OB. I work in a school and felt it necessary.
I'm thinking another OB office will have all their supply reserved for their patients but you could give it a try.

Re: Has anyone gotten the swine flu vaccine?

I got mine last week at my DS pediatrician's office. My OB was not getting them in.

But I live in NJ, so I'm probably not much help.
