Rockwall County has received the second highest amount of Swine Flu vaccines to private health-care providers in the Dallas area, according to the Dallas Morning News story. 

Dallas County has the most at 8.3 vaccines per 100 residents, followed by Rockwall Co. at 7.5 and Tarrant Co. at 6.5.

Several factors are considered by Texas health officials when allocating vaccine, including its current scarcity, providers’ requests and the need for geographic balance.

Just last week one doctor in Rockwall said he couldn’t seem to get rid of  all of the Swine Flu vaccines he had received. He still had 75 percent remaining.
