MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Gov. Jim Doyle says he has not gotten vaccinated for swine flu and probably won't.
Doyle said he hasn't gotten it because he's not in the target group of high-risk people health officials are urging to be vaccinated. Those include pregnant women and young children.
Doyle says he wishes the vaccine could be distributed more quickly, but he believes everyone is working as hard as they can to make that happen. He says, "It's moving as quickly as it's coming in to us."
The state Department of Health Services reported Friday that so far Wisconsin has been allocated nearly 700,000 doses of vaccine and has received and distributed about 500,000.
