Several Central Texas health departments say swine flu vaccine shipments are starting to arrive.

Most OB-GYN and pediatrician offices are now receiving a share of the vaccine shipments.

If you have a family doctor, you should check with his or her office first, but if you don't have insurance, call your local health department.

About 3,000 doses arrived at the Austin-Travis County Health and Human Services Department last week.  Officials say they hope to have enough for a mass clinic in November.

Williamson County has received about 1,100 doses.

If you have questions about the flu or the vaccine, call 2-1-1 -- a state phone line where you can speak directly to a nurse.
