No Shortages Of Flu Vaccines

{Frankfort, Kentucky}…Gwenda Bond, a spokeswoman for the state Cabinet for Health and Family Services, says the flu outbreak has been widespread in Kentucky for five weeks, which is earlier than usual, but health officials are not aware of any shortages of flu vaccines. A northern Kentucky  man died recently from complications of the flu. The flu is causing sporadic absences among workers at the UPS air hub in Louisville, and the University of Kentucky is planning to announce some temporary restrictions on visiting patients at its hospitals to limit exposure to the flu.
