The swine flu situation is becoming urgent and so the race for the vaccines has become more intense and more urgent. The promise for an early September release now seems very unlikely now.
The race for a new vaccine began in earnest in April when institutes in the UK, Japan and the US began work to produce a ‘seed strain’.
The reconstructed virus created after using reverse genetics techniques, will be safe for humans and will be able to trigger an immune response that will protect people against swine flu disease.
But some countries need the vaccine... now. The US, the UK, New Zealand Chile and Australia seem to be suffering more from swine flu than the rest of the world and are pressing for the vaccines to go through clinical trials.
