The Obama administration is weeks away from a critical decision on whether to trigger mass production of swine-flu vaccine, which could affect the
bottom lines of big vaccine makers as well as public health.
Besides determining whether a vaccine would be effective and safe, government officials and private laboratories will need to answer practical and
financial questions: Does it make sense to order hundreds of millions of doses and organize a mass vaccination campaign for a virus that, so far,
isn't widespread and doesn't seem particularly lethal?
Oh lord! I for one do not trust the government with any vaccine program. Somewhere I read that they might force people into taking the vaccine by
charging them a fine of $250,000 for refusing the shot.
Conspiracy theorists might want to start making some noise.
