BENTON CITY, Wash..--(Business Wire)--
Wristbandfactory.com reports that its desktop printable sheets of wristbands are
helping to control overflow crowds at swine flu vaccination sites where lines
exceed 1,500 people and last for hours. Families in these lines have needs over
the course of a few hours and have to leave the line to use the restroom, get
food, and run back to the car. The problem is when they get back to the line,
did someone save their place? "Our wristbands are selling all over the country
since the President declared H1N1 flu a National Emergency," said Steve Hall,
CEO, Wristbandfactory.com, a division of Rippedsheets.com. "Our
Wristbandfactory.com wristbands come in both kids and adult sizes on a sheet
with over a dozen wristbands per sheet. We are seeing that people are buying
them to print themselves on their laser printers. Apparently they want to do
their own crowd control, vaccination information and customization on-site."
Wristbands can be printed to identify priority groups and place in line. Nancy
Shute of U.S. News and World Report said on October 25, "I was the first one on
my block to get my child vaccinated against H1N1 swine flu, but it took a
three-hour wait in the cold, standing outside a county health clinic with 1,400
other flu-shot seekers...getting an H1N1 shot is an adventure."
Hall at Wristbandfactory.com said, "Wristbands from our company will help young
people and parents get a better feeling where they are in line among the crowds,
police directing traffic and news cameras!"
