While you and I may not have access to the N1H1 vaccine going around right now, we can all rest assured that that captains of industry on Wall Street have access to the vaccine.

Today, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) asked Health and Human Service (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to investigate why the Center for Disease Control (CDC) approved the distribution of the H1NI vaccine to Wall Street firms at a time when the vaccine is unavailable to most Americans.So we should keep this in mind when thinking about any sort of public health threat or disaster. These captains do not ever go down with the ship.
Recent news reports indicate 13 companies, including Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase and Time Warner, have been cleared to receive the vaccine.
