Abstract | Thousands of area residents received a flu vaccine that may provide them with less-than-ideal protection, but doctors and health officials said only people with chronic health problems need to consider getting a second shot. "We have no plans to reimmunize," Allentown Health Director Barbara Stader said of the 2,200 city residents who received the suspect Parke-Davis influenza vaccine at the Bureau of Health before lots were recalled this week. The city health bureau, St. Luke's Hospital in Fountain Hill and Visiting Nurse Association of Easton, Palmer Township, were three major health care providers who dispensed the Parke-Davis flu vaccine to thousands of local people. But many more providers did not. Health officials recommend those at high risk check with their doctor or whoever gave them the shot. |
