KUSA - A 9NEWS viewer who had the Hong Kong flu in 1968 e-mailed the 9NEWS morning show asking if he was immune from the H1N1 virus.

9NEWS Medical Reporter Dr. John Torres says because the flu mutates every year, that viewer is not immune.


That is just one of the questions Dr. John answered for us.


A viewer who is pregnant e-mailed, wanting to know when more clinics will be scheduled in Denver and how she can go about getting the vaccine.


Dr. John called that the "million dollar question."


9NEWS viewers can find a list of county health department Web sites and flu clinic locations by going to http://www.colorado.gov/nofluforyou.


You can also get the information by calling CO HELP, Colorado's flu hotline, at 1-877-462-2911.

We will answer more questions next Wednesday on 9NEWS 8 a.m. E-mail mornings@9news.com.
