CHICAGO -
Wall Street obtained the highly sought after H-1-N-1 vaccine for its high risk employees.
Firms like Goldman Sachs and Citigroup, as well as large universities including Columbia, even the Federal Reserve and Time Inc. all got plenty of vaccine.
Morgan Stanley did too, but it turned over its one-thousand doses to local hospitals that needed it.
Uncle Sam pays for the vaccine and distributes it to the states. Then local health departments decide where to send the limited doses. In New York, health officials allow the state's largest employers, with on-site medical staff, to apply for the vaccine.
The shots are supposed to be reserved for high-risk employees like pregnant women and people with chronic illnesses such as asthma. So, the companies must agree to vaccinate only high risk people.
