Everyone in Manitoba is now eligible to get the H1N1 vaccine.

The provincial government on Wednesday discarded the priority list that had been in effect since the immunization program began Oct. 26.

Each region will be adapting their clinics based on the supply and demand for the vaccine "and other geographic and population realities," stated a release from the government.

The health authority responsible for the northern Manitoba city of Thompson cast aside its priority list on Tuesday. That decision marked the first time in the province the general public was given the green light to get the swine flu shot.

As a result of opening up the clinics to everyone, there could be crowds lining up again, health officials warned on Wednesday.

In Winnipeg on Tuesday, most of the 12 clinics operated by the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority (WRHA) experienced minimal waiting times and small lineups — if any at all.

Since Oct. 26, a total of 141,544 people have received the H1N1 shot in Winnipeg.

Across the province, the number is about 240,000.

The WRHA isn't sure yet if it will open up the special Saturday and Sunday clinics it held for the first time last weekend. The decision depends on how quickly Winnipeggers go through the vaccine over the next couple of days.

If there is a surge in numbers, the current supply could run out, officials said.

However, there is more vaccine being shipped to the province every week, they noted.

The WRHA clinics will run Monday to Thursday, 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Locations are on the map below.
