Morning lines were still long in Cornwall as people lined up with their umbrellas to get the H1N1 Flu vaccine. Hopefully not too many of them come down with a cold in the process. By noon the lines had diminished. 
There will be flu shots for all that want them so remember not to panic. Patience and courtesy will help the medical teams serve as many as possible as quickly as possible.
