Children's Hospital in London is making some changes to deal with the large number of kids coming into the ER with flu-like symptoms.
A special clinic is being set up to deal with those cases.
It will be run by nurse practitioners and will be open from noon until 8pm.
The hospital decided to open the clinic because half the patients showing up at Children's have respiratory illness and 21 were admitted to hospital with presumed cases of H1N1 flu.
Head of Emergency Care in London, Dr. Gary Joubert, tells Newstalk 1290 this is just one of the plans the hospital is implementing to deal with the H1-N1 flu fears
The Middlesex London Health Unit meanwhile, will hold two more H1N1 flu vaccination clinics again today.
One at the Lambeth Community Centre, the other at Clarke Road Secondary School.
They run from 3:30 this afternoon until 8:30 tonight.
