No H1N1 vaccination shots have been destroyed in this province according to the Health Minister.

Mary Schryer says the swine flu vaccine has a short shelf life, but to her knowledge there hasn't been any shots go to waste in New Brunswick.
This comes after nearly 80 doses of the vaccine was discarded in Halifax, and nearly 475 doses in Toronto.
Schryer says so far there has been over 150 thousand people vaccinated so far in the province, and expects 40 thousand more by the end of the week.
