I saw on Friday that a vaccine would soon be available for the swine flu. Hopefully it doesn’t mutate though.
From Google News:
Baxter International Inc. (BAX) said Friday that it has launched full-scale production of a commercial vaccine for the A/H1N1 flu virus and that it could have it ready for use as early as July.
The World Health Organization officially declared a pandemic on Thursday for the virus, also known as the swine flu, and Baxter shares have been on the rise since amid expectations this will trigger orders between health organizations and vaccine makers, including Baxter.
Earlier Friday, Novartis AG (NOVN.VX) released positive data on a vaccine for swine flu and said it had produced its first batch weeks ahead of expectations.
