Not planning, but "planning."

cherryNote to self: Do not read the comments on CBC news articles. The anti-vaccination crazies are out in full force, and I just end up wanting to punch people in the throat.
Aside from Plague Rat Girl the other night (suffering from serious flu symptoms and living with someone who has H1N1, decided to come into class), the Student Health Centre has reported that due to the number of "Influenza-Like Illnesses" it is seeing, it is banning anyone not suffering from ILI symptoms.
The state of vaccination in this province:
Partially Immunized:
- Health Care Workers
Non-immunized:
Everyone else.
Doses available next week:
Initially 140,000. Announced on Monday that it is 60,000. Announced this afternoon that it will actually be 14,000.
Risk groups being immunized next week:
Pregnant women, women who have ceased to be pregnant in the last four weeks, and children between the ages of six months and five years.
Dates for other risk groups (within the last 56 hours):
Initially November 2nd. Then November 9th. Then November 3rd. Now unknown.
I dislike feeling paranoid. However, as I am in the 'stupid %#$&ing lungs' risk group, the under 25 danger zone, and the university area appears to be a hotbed, I cannot help but be concerned.
