Yeah, we can handle a flu epidemic all right.

BOISE – There's a record number of flu vaccine doses nationwide, but Central District Health in Boise has not received its shipment, and that means thousands will have to wait for their flu shot....

The pharmaceutical reps and manufacturers have been contacted, but so far no explanation has been offered. It's a situation that is also happening outside of Idaho.

"There are health districts and private providers all over the county that have only received 10-15 percent of the orders they have placed. It’s kind of hard to get straight answers out of anybody," said Fotsch.
And this is regular flu. In, as far as anyone know so far, a regular year.
