Specialty drug maker Baxter International Inc. says it's in "full scale" production of a swine flu vaccine. The vaccine will be commercially available in July.
The company made its announcement one day after the World Health Organization declared swine flu a global pandemic.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports 45 swine flu deaths nationwide.
The National Vaccine Information Center will hold its 4th conference in Washington DC October 2-4 of this year. I will be speaking there as will some of the leading experts in vaccines in the world. Clearly the best vaccine conference in the world and it is only held every few years. If this is of any interest to you I would strongly encourage you to attend.
