Peoria County's second H1N1 clinic is underway at Woodrow Wilson school in Peoria.
Some of the residents waited in loine for hours Tuesday at the school after being turned away Monday night from a Chillicothe clinic.
If you are are considering getting an H1N1 vaccine on Tuesday, you may want to wait until Wednesday. The Health Department is only giving out shot vouchers to the first 700 people in line. The rest will be turned away...
Jana Heffron was in line for her flu shot Tuesday afternoon. She says she and her husband waited for more than three hours at I-V-C to get vaccinated Monday night. But around 7:30pm, she and about two dozen others, hoping to get in under the wire, were told to go home.
The Health Department Public Information Officer says they began the clinic 30 minutes early, and closed it 30 minutes later than scheduled. And they vaccinated close to 900 people on Monday.
The Department spokesperson says they are rationing the amount of vaccine distributed at each clinic so that residents all over the county have a chance to get vaccinated.
