Effective Treatments for H1N1
Wednesday, August 26, 2009
Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to minimize suffering and death from influenza, but currently there is not a vaccine available to prevent H1N1. However, Development of a vaccine against the H1N1 virus is proceeding rapidly both in the United States and around the world.
The United States Government is working to expand domestic flu vaccine production capacity to be able to produce pandemic vaccines for the entire population within six months of a pandemic declaration. However, at the beginning of a pandemic the supply of flu vaccine will require that the limited supply be prioritized for distribution and administration.
The National Institutes of Health and its pharmaceutical industry partners have been developing several other kinds of influenza vaccines that are not yet licensed for use. However, next-generation vaccines will require additional safety and efficacy testing before they can be deployed.
More to the point, if you already are infected with H1N1 the vaccine will not help you, but one of the new class of antiviral medications, such as Tamiful might.
