Concern over contracting H1N1 increases in the province; a majority believe that provincial authorities have done a fair or poor job in managing the distribution of the vaccine.
A new independent online poll conducted by Insightrix Research shows that 66.4% of the public are either very concerned (19.7%) or somewhat
concerned (46.7%) about their or someone else in their household contracting the H1N1 virus. This is up from 55.9% who were very or somewhat concerned about contracting the virus just
one month ago. The poll was conducted between November 6th and 10th, in the midst of initial public vaccinations throughout the province.
A total of 800 randomly selected panel members participated in the online research study between November 6th and 10th, 2009. The data are weighted by age and gender to match
the general population of the province. Quotas were set by region to match the general population. As the research was conducted online, it is considered a non-probability
proportion sample and therefore margins of error are not applicable.
