F0 FEATURED SESSION: State Experiences in Implementation of the H1N1 Vaccination Program

This session will highlight some of the specific implementation issues that programs had to address during the implementation of the vaccination campaign, specifically balancing priority populations and vaccine formulations available, challenges associated with implementing the campaign in a state where counties are quite autonomous and many are sparsely populated, and implementation of a statewide school-located vaccination program.
