State health officials have been fielding calls from concerned Alaskans demanding to know why H1N1 vaccine is not yet more widely available as well as questioning how decisions are made about the distribution of the vaccine. State division of health immunization program manager Laurel Wood says each day state health officials check the CDC website to see how much vaccine is available and how much Alaska will be allowed to request.
