are we beta testing the H1N1 vaccine?
I’ve just gotten my seasonal flu vaccine two weeks ago, but I’m not even sure that the H1N1 vaccine will be available. If it is the question is would I take it?
Since each year’s seasonal normal vaccine is made of a different mix depending on what strains seem popular, in effect every year we beta test the vaccine, but the procedure they follow to create the doses are the same year to year. The question I’ve had for weeks is would the H1N1 vaccine be produced the same way?
After reading dozens of mainstream media news stories based on the same press release that go on and on about “hand washing”, I’ve finally found the info I’ve been looking for here, a page from the CDC with a date of two days ago.
Since the procedure isn’t that much different,. I suppose this is the year I’d get a second flu shot, if demand makes that even possible.
