Manufacturers Out of Flu Vaccine The flu is in full swing in my area and has had very tragic consequences. In the last two weeks we have have 2 children under 3 years and one 16 year-old die from complications related to the flu. Upon the death of the last child our health services have become overwhelmed with people asking for the flu shot. Of course, we are out like everyone else. I sent my daughter, who lives in a dorm, all over Shreveport to try to find a flu vaccine as neither she or her boyfriend got it when it was available. So far they have been unable to obtain one. I guess when the CDC said it was going to be an extremely bad flu season we all should have listened. And to think I am a nurse. 2 Makers of Flu Shot Say They Are Out of Vaccine.
