KINGSFORD — The H1N1 vaccine for pregnant women is now available at their prenatal care provider or through the health department in Dickinson and Iron counties.. The health department has a limited supply of H1N1 vaccine which is restricted to the following groups: * Children aged 6 months to 4 years * Persons who live with or provide care for infants less than 6 months of age * Children and adolescents aged 5 -18 years who have medical conditions that put them at higher risk for influenza-related complications, for example, diabetes, asthma, heart disease or neurological disease.
