Insurance and health officials are urging health insurers to make sure that as many people as possible have access to H1N1 vaccine and treatment. “So far, this flu has proven less virulent than initially feared,” said Washington State Insurance Commissioner Mike Kreidler. “But we want insurers to be fully prepared for what looks to be a challenging flu season. Working together, we can minimize the impact of both swine flu and regular seasonal flu.”
