BILLINGS - A shipment of swine flu vaccine arrived in Yellowstone County paving the way for another public vaccine clinic.

Riverstone Health Officials say they now have 3,400 doses to distribute at a walk-in clinic set for Monday and to distribute to Saint Vincent Healthcare and Billings Clinic.

The vaccine clinic will be held at 1 p.m. Monday, November 2nd, at the Shrine Auditorium. Roughly 1,200 doses will be distributed at that time. Vaccines will be available on a first come, first served basis until 7 p.m. or until the supply runs out. Riverstone Health officials say it's important to remember the H1N1 vaccine is only being administered to priority groups.

Those groups include anyone 6 months to 24-years-old, pregnant women, people who care for infants under the age of 6 months, health care personnel, and people 25 to 64-years-old who have chronic medical conditions.

For more information call the Riverstone Health flu information line at (406) 651-6444.
