Some kids have already had the chance to get the H1N1 vaccine but many will have to go back for a second dose.

Officials at the Mid-Ohio Valley Health Department and the CDC said kids nine years old and younger need to receive two doses of the swine flu vaccine.

According to the CDC, the two doses need to be separated by four weeks.

Officials said children 10 years old and older, pregnant women, and adults only need one dose of the vaccine.
