Get Vaccinations For H1N1:  Recommends U.S. Health Secretary

The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius said that she wants people to know that swine flu still exists; it hasn't yet been thrown away completely.

In a Jan. 26 conference she said, "Flu season isn't over yet. We often have less flu in January. I want to assure public that we have a safe and effective H1N1 flu vaccine and that more than 61 million people in the United States have been vaccinated". Sebelius also warned that 18 to 24-year-old people are six times more likely to be affected.

The government is putting in efforts to reach out to people online by creating a Web site where people can watch public service announcement about H1N1. People can also watch news conferences and the recommendations that Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have given on H1N1. This website, according to Sebelius, has a flu vaccine locator, where people can find places to get vaccinated in their city. This map is motorized by Google-maps.

As a part of the government campaign of spreading awareness, "I'm a Flu Fighter" is a page on Facebook created to encourage vaccination.
