I've been sick practically the entire winter. It has been so long since I opened my mouth and heard anything but a croak. I got ALL the shots, did everything right.

Now it's gonna be WORSE?? I might not be ABLE to get the shots???

It's unclear. Best case scenario, though, if this meeting doesn't convene, is that the shot will be less effective.

The scenarios then go through "You'll be able to get a less effective shot but have to pay for it.

"You'll be able to get last year's shot, but have to pay for it.

Worst case is, indeed, zero availability of the flu shot in the U.S. and highly restricted availability in Canada (so you won't be able to just hop the border to get it.

I don't know where Mexico gets their vaccines. Anyone?
