GGN- H1N1 Vaccine Added to Next Season’s Flu Shots 2010-2011

Interesting video about H1N1 Vaccine. Take a look:


PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!!!!! www.ama-assn.org At the peak of the influenza A(H1N1) virus epidemic last year, Atlanta internist Sandra Fryhofer, MD, had to refuse vaccine for some patients because they did not fall into the priority groups set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That shouldn’t be a problem during the next flu season, as the Food and Drug Administration has decided to include a pandemic 2009 H1N1 virus in the Northern Hemisphere’s 2010-11 seasonal influenza vaccine. “This will make vaccine strategies much simpler so we can focus on getting people vaccinated and protected rather than trying to figure out which group they’re in or should they get [the vaccine] now or later,” said Dr. Fryhofer, clinical associate professor of medicine at Emory University School of Medicine and a member of the American Medical Association Council on Science and Public Health. The FDA announced Feb. 23 that an A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)-like virus would be included in next season’s flu vaccine. This is the same virus used in the 2009 H1N1 monovalent vaccine. Also included in the upcoming influenza vaccine will be an A/Perth/16/2009 (H3N2)-like virus and a B/Brisbane/60/2008-like virus. The FDA’s move was followed a day later by a federal panel’s recommendation to administer next season’s flu vaccine to nearly all Americans, including healthy young people, a group that was disproportionately affected by H1N1. The US H1N1 epidemic peaked in October 2009, with another surge
