About H1N1 vaccinations at Children's
Parents looking to get H1N1 vaccine for their children should know that the vaccine is not available at this time for
the general public. Children's of Minnesota did receive one small shipment of vaccine on October 15 but these
were immediately administered to extremely high risk patients. We anticipate more shipments in the coming weeks and hope
that we can start H1N1 vaccinations sometime in November.

Children’s of Minnesota will distributed 15,000 bottles of hand sanitizer to more than 120 Minneapolis and St. Paul K-12 public schools.
|
For the protection of all patients, Children’s will institute additional visitor restrictions during times of respiratory illness season.
If you plan to visit Children's please review our general visitor restrictions and guidelines.
