Hamilton's community H1N1 vaccination clinics will remain open this week despite reports that supplies of the vaccine might run out.
The province announced Friday that it will receive another allotment of 770,000 doses from the federal government this week.
Hamilton's associate medical officer of health, Dr. Chris Mackie, says the city should get its portion by Tuesday or Wednesday.
The clinics continue to be only for those considered high-risk, including people under age 65 with chronic medical conditions, pregnant women, children 6 months to under 5-years and health care workers.
