Re: Swine flu vaccine 'by September'

Whilst the vaccine is nearly approved for use, last few hurdles to clear, it is worth pointing out that the availability of it is likely to be very limited until the end of this year. Rightly, only those in priority groups will be given it first; so if anyone in the "normal human category" (i.e. most AVF members - I use the term loosely! :-)) is thinking of getting this jab, it may be into early next year before its generally available.
