the exchange in the following email: "Hi Max. I understand
that some doctors in border communities are willing to provide

can search for doctors names and phone numbers at this url:

not sure what they are charging, although I did read one story
recently that mentioned $50. I hope you have success!"

When and if the clinics run out of vaccine, individual doctors may
still have surplus vaccine.
If you discover additional means for Americans to obtain flu
