Flu Vaccine

>> Please read all of this ---
>>
>> Flu Shot Info
>> How the vaccine works:
>>
>> Influenza vaccine is produced by growing the virus in eggs. The virus
is
>> killed and processed to create the vaccine, which is given by injection
>> under the skin. The body then produces antibodies to the virus over the
> next
>> two to four weeks. If the immunized person then comes into contact with
> the
>> influenza virus, the antibodies attack and kill the virus before it has
a
>> chance to cause infection. The vaccine contains the 3 most likely
strains
> to
>> be active during the "flu season."
>>
>> Why the shortage?
>> Almost half of the nation's flu vaccine will not be delivered this
>> year. Chiron, a major manufacturer of flu vaccine, will not be
> distributing
>> any influenza vaccine this flu season. Chiron was to make 46-48 million
>> doses vaccine for the United States. Chiron is a British company.
Recently
>> British health officials stopped Chiron from distributing and making
the
>> vaccine when inspectors found unsanitary conditions in the labs. Some
lots
>> of the vaccine were recalled and destroyed.
>>
>> Why is our vaccine made in the UK and not the US?
>> The major pharmaceutical companies in the US provided almost 90% of the
>> nations flu vaccine at one time. They did this despite a very low
profit
>> margin for the product. Basically, they were doing us a favor. In the
late
>> 80's a man from North Carolina who had received the vaccine got the
flu.
> The
>> strain he caught was one of the strains in that years vaccine made by a
US
>> company. What did he do? He sued and he won. He was awarded almost $5
>> million! After that case was appealed and lost, most US pharmaceutical
>> companies stopped making the vaccine. The liability out weighed the
profit
>> margin. Since UK and Canadian laws prohibit such frivolous law suits UK
> and
>> Canadian companies began selling the vaccine in the US.
>
>> By the way...the lawyer that represented the man in the flu shot law
suit
>> was a young ambulance chaser by the name of John Edwards.
