Beijing started inoculating more people with the A/H1N1 flu vaccine, as the disease continues to spread.

Starting Monday, and for the next month, all registered Beijing residents older than three are eligible to be inoculated with the A/H1N1 flu vaccine. This will be conducted on a voluntary basis. An ID card is the only thing people need to bring to get the free shot.

A nurse in Beijing said, "We've vaccinated fifty people in an hour and a half. We are expecting more than a hundred people today. We prepared more than one thousand doses of the vaccine.
