   What exactly is / was your original point?   
      
   Please clearly restate any points you were making in this thread so that   
   I can respond to them.   
      
   No Ontarian that is or has recieved the H1N1 vaccine has had to pay any   
   out-of-pocket cost to get it.  It's my understanding that that's also   
   the case in the USA.   
      
   That is different than the seasonal flu shot, which is also no-cost in   
   Ontario but not in the USA unless it's covered by some health plan or   
   medicaid or medicare (you still might be charged an "administration fee"   
   in the US).

   There are reports that people waiting in line for hours have complained   
   that they faced several pages of paperwork that caused unnecessary   
   additional delays to the whole process, and that they could have filled   
   them out at home ahead of time.   
      
   You have not stated where (in what venue) you obtained your h1n1 shot.   
   Was it at a public clinic, a private (contracted) nursing service, at a   
   health care facility (nursing home, hospital) or a doctor's office.
