There have been 16 more fatalities in Thailand from Swine Flu recently. Bringing the total up to 81. The Public Health Ministry in Thailand shows an alarming figure of more than 3 million people who have been infected with swine flu. This number includes people who have had swine flu, but have no recovered and people who have reported swine flu like symptoms but have now recovered. GPO Director Dr Vithit Atthavejjakul said that animal trials of A(H1N1)vaccine are now being run in the Netherlands and will take six or seven days to complete. The vaccine testing to be done on humans, will be carried out within the next few weeks.
With these current trials, it seems that not enough time has been given for testing. And let's just hope the vaccine that's released here in Thailand and in other places in general hospitals won't have any harmful side-effects.
