DHEC says that 1.4 million doses of the vaccine will be available beginning Monday.

South Carolina has reported 40 deaths associated with the H1N1 virus since September.

DHEC Spokesman Thom Berry says there have been more than 850 hospitalizations related to the outbreak.

You should ask your doctor if vaccines are available.
