NEW HAMPSHIRE OFFICIALS SAY THEY’RE PLEASED WITH THIS WEEKEND’S DRILL TO TEST THE STATE’S ABILITY TO CONDUCT A MASS VACCINATION.
18-HUNDRED PEOPLE AT CLINICS IN MANCHESTER, COLEBROOK, AND PORTSMOUTH WERE VACCINATED AGAINST THE COMMON FLU. MEANWHILE, THE EXERCISE ALLOWED HEALTH OFFICIALS TO TEST HOW THEY WOULD VACCINATE THE ENTIRE STATE, IN THE EVENT OF A PANDEMIC. NEW HAMPSHIRE PUBLIC RADIO CORRESPONDENT DOUG MACPHERSON ATTENDED THE PORTSMOUTH CLINIC. HE FILED THIS REPORT.
