LAYTON — The Davis County Health Department has refined its ticket system for the H1N1 mass vaccination clinic scheduled for 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3, at the Davis Conference Center, 800 W. Heritage Park Blvd.

From 5 to 8 p.m. Monday, more than half of the tickets will be handed out — first-come, first-served — to people in the H1N1 target populations. The location of tonight's ticket distribution will be at the Davis County Legacy Events Center (formerly known as the county FairPark), 151 S. 1100 West, Farmington.

The remainder of the free H1N1 vaccine tickets will be available at Tuesday's clinic in Layton until they all have been handed out.

Each ticket represents a dose of H1N1 vaccine and will have an assigned hour time block on it. This new method of providing a designated hour-long block of time to each person with a ticket should help reduce traffic and parking congestion, as well as waiting times during the actual clinic.

Adults may pick up tickets for their immediate household members only.

People with tickets are asked to show up on Tuesday no earlier than 15 minutes prior to their designated hour.

The H1N1 FluMist vaccine is for people in the targeted populations who are healthy (but not pregnant) and 2 to 49 years of age. The H1N1 injectable vaccine is for people in the targeted populations who are healthy or who have an underlying medical condition and are 6 months to 64 years of age.

The H1N1 vaccine will be offered to the general population after the higher-risk groups have been immunized.
