Anyone know if DC clinics will vaccinate parents of infants under 6 months this week?

Anonymous
The schedule posted on the website said parents of newborns would be able to get vaccines starting this week, but the listing of the actual clinics for this week says just youth and pregnant women. I have tried calling several times and keep getting passed along to various voicemail boxes.

And if not, is my only option Fairfax at this point? The patchwork of info is driving me crazy!

My neighbor, who has a 6 week old, was given the shot this past weekend at Coolidge. So was her husband. This is contrary to the info. on the DC Gov't website, but it appears to be their practice (at least it was last weekend). The CDC website indicates that DOH anticipates mass vaccination clinics being opened to caregivers of infants under 6 mo's by 10/26 (yesterday), although again, the DC Gov't website does not reflect as much yet. See http://newsroom.dc.gov/show.aspx/agency/doh/section/2/release/18333/year/2009.
