Thunder Bay Flu Scanners

Wait times at Thunder Bay flu shot clinics should get shorter once new computer equipment is up and operating.

The Thunder Bay District Health Unit is receiving gear that will allow quicker sign-ins at swine flu and seasonal flu clinics.

The equipment will allow those seeking shots to swipe an Ontario health card or driver's licence for identification.

The health unit will receive about 20 scanners at a cost of about 60-thousand dollars.
