Bird Flu Vaccine

Glaxo, eurozones biggest pharma has a bird flu vaccine ready for human use. This is great news. The prepandemic cure is now available in all of europe.

In fact, now we can defend ourselves from the deadly H5N1 virus. An influenza pandemic could kill millions worldwide. In 1919 it is estimated the over 100 milion p;eople died, more than WWI.

Experts are worried that the H5N1 bird flu might mutate into a hypervirulent strain capable of spreading thru human to human contact. Thus we need the vaccine to be ready before the virus mutates.
