Using an assembly-line like system, high-risk residents quickly filed through the Mercer County State Health Center in Jackson Center Friday afternoon to get their H1N1 vaccine.
Some said the process was so efficient, it took them longer to drive there than it did to get inoculated.
It was one of a number of clinics set up this weekend all around Pennsylvania. This one included people from Mercer, Lawrence, Venango and Crawford counties and specifically targeted those with a higher risk of contracting swine flu, but up until now were not able to get vaccinated at their local schools or doctors' offices.
Some bringing their children here tell me even though their kids may have already been sick with flu-like symptoms, they wanted to get vaccinated anyway.
Others said they and their children have been lucky so far, but they don't want to take any chances.
Organizers say nearly 1,200 people pre-registered for today's clinic with another 800 signed-up tomorrow. They anticipate even more will simply show up to see if they can get vaccinated.
