SPOKANE-- The Spokane Health District says the number of Swine Flu cases appears to be tapering off, but the health district is preparing for another outbreak during the holiday travel season.

The health department is hoping Swine Flu season is over, but the department says the flu is hard to predict.  When it comes to the travel season, there is not a lot to do differently. People are still at risk for catching Swine Flu on a plane, bus, car, or at work. The Spokane Health District is planning another H1N1 clinic Wednesday in Airway Heights at the Airway Heights Community Center from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The clinic is the last first come, first serve clinic for high-risk people only.  The health district says those that do not qualify as high risk will have to wait until more doses of the vaccine become available.
