US demands royalties on pandemic vaccines as thousands more fall ill with influenza A(H1N1) Mexican

An intergovernmental meeting of the World Health Organisation (WHO), has failed to reach an agreement on sharing influenza virus research material and access to vaccines, with the US placing profits ahead of the threat of wide-scale, world-wide deaths from the current influenza A(H1N1), or Mexican swine flu, pandemic.

Excellent story, still looking for corrabortive links.
If you live in a wealthy country it will be important to get a flu vaccine this year I think.

Let me know if you find more links to other news
