CHICAGO (WBBM) -- If you want to get a swine flu shot from one of the six City Colleges sites in Chicago, the city health department has some good news for you.
The city health department says waiting times at the six City Colleges sites have been reduced.
Health Department spokesman Tim Hadac says the busiest of the six sites, by far, is Wright College at 4300 North Narragansett.
And Hadac says the city doubled the number of nurses there - so this past Saturday, there were 30 nurses.
Hadac says the city has given 28,000 swine flu shots at the City Colleges sites so far.
Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday are the days again this week: 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. on the two weekdays, and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday.
Hadac says the H1N1 vaccine is expected to be available at retail pharmacies "in the weeks ahead."
