Vaccines should be adequate for flu emergency

A physician with the Christian Medical Association believes there will be enough swine flu vaccine for anyone who wants it.

 

Dr. John Greene tells OneNewsNow that more than one-billion people worldwide may become infected with Novel H1N1, a virus better known as swine flu. Vaccines have slowly been coming onto the market, but Greene notes that anyone who wants or needs a vaccine against swine flu should be able to get one before the end of the year. 
 
Vaccine"I would say that within the next month or two, they will have hit most of the high-risk people -- and then anybody else who is lower down on the list for risk, [it] will be available to them," predicts Greene. "And then eventually everyone who wants it will ultimately get it. The question is how fast, and I think in the next month...most people who need it will have gotten it."
 
The physician also believes that the Obama administration declaring swine flu a national emergency was a wise move because it is pushing people to get vaccinated at a much higher rate.
