The Center for Disease Control has allowed the state close to one million doses of the vaccine. So far the state has ordered over 765,000 doses and will distribute that to people with the highest priority.
James McCurtis is with the Michigan Department of Community Health.
"We're at about 77 percent of the allocated doses that have been ordered so the state is going to be getting more and vaccinein and that's a good thing. We want to be sure that we're able to get all the people that fall into the priority groups and those who don't fall into the priority groups later on in the flu season.
McCurtis says more doses of the killed vaccine have been ordered than the live nasal spray vaccine. They say the live vaccine will be distributed in schools and universities, where better health is usually present. This would leave the killed inject able vaccine for health centers and hospitals.
