FYI
President Barack Obama designated $1.825 billion on Thursday for emergency use to fight the new pandemic of H1N1 swine flu.
The money will go to buy vaccine ingredients, to help health officials plan immunization campaigns and to help get the vaccines approved at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Obama said in a letter to House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The U.S. government says a swine flu vaccine should be available by mid-October and it likely will be offered to younger adults and older children, with healthcare workers first in line so they can stay healthy to vaccinate everyone else.
Six companies make seasonal flu vaccine for the U.S. market: GlaxoSmithKline Plc (GSK.L) and ID Biomedical Corp, Novartis AG (NOVN.VX), Sanofi-Aventis SA (SASY.PA) and AstraZeneca (AZN.L), through its MedImmune unit, and CSL Ltd (CSL.AX).
