East Metro Health District not affected by Sanofi Pasteur Recall

We understand the community concern regarding the voluntary recall and would like to inform you that:

The State Office informed us on December 16, 2009 of a voluntary recall by manufacturer Sanofi Pasteur of several lots of the H1N1 vaccine.

The lot numbers used by the East Metro Health District (Buford, Lawrenceville, Norcross, Conyers, and Covington Health Departments) to vaccinate children 6 months through 35 months of age for the H1N1 vaccine have not been affected by the voluntary recall.
