Secretary Visits "The View" and "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart"

Release Date: October 13, 2009

Secretary Napolitano appeared on ABC’s The View and the Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart yesterday, where she discussed H1N1, preparedness, and a number of other topics.

It's clear that Americans have questions about H1N1. Who should receive the vaccine? Is it safe?
 
The secretary addressed those issues during her interviews:
"This is a bad flu, and it's a very safe vaccine, so under any analysis, you should go ahead and get the vaccine."
 
Check out video of the interviews at theview.tv and thedailyshow.com, and head over to flu.gov for more information on the vaccine.
