SWIFTWATER, MONROE COUNTY -- Students in the Poconos lined-up Sunday to get the swine flu vaccine.

It was the last day for student H1N1 vaccines in the Pocono Mountain School District. Kids turned-out to Pocono Mountain West High School for the clinic.

More than 1,000 students were vaccinated Saturday. We caught up with some kids Sunday afternoon who were taking their parents' advice.

Chris Ramsdale said, "I think I'll be okay without it, but I got it just in case... be safe... like my dad always says."

More than 4,000 Americans have died from the swine flu.
