The first of many orders as governments around the world buy more relenza to decrease there reliance on Tamipoo.

''DUBAI — The Ministry of Health has ordered for 100,000 packets of Relenza, one of the two drugs found effective in treating swine originated H1N1 influenza A that has spread to at least
21 countries''

"concerns about resistance to Tamiflu have recently prompted governments to try combination of antiviral drugs including Relenza and others.

A recent international report said that government orders for Relenza were 20 per cent more than those for Tamiflu in the first quarter of 2009 following some reports of resistance of H1N1 to Tamiflu."
