New hope for development of H1N1 (Swine Flu) vaccine


edition.cnn.com
SEOUL, Korea (CNN) -- Researchers at a South Korean university say they have discovered a candidate strain for an H1N1 vaccine, though it has not yet been approved by health authorities in the United States or the World Health Organization.

Re: Vaccine development for H1N1.

This is really important info for anyone who is considering getting the vaccine, or knows of someone who will and wants them to remain well:

As we know the US has dedicated 1B dollars to vaccine development, with the major players being Novartis, Sanofi, etc. The leader in the vaccine development with be GlaxoSmithKline. They have pledged to have the vaccine ready within 6 months, after regulatory approval.

Here's the catch: because there is a small amount of viral isolate, as in many new vaccines, GSK will use an adjuvant- a chemical that will help boost the immune response and antibody development to the viral material. The problem is (apart from the material in vaccines that is in itself, deadly,) the adjuvant, GSK's "proprietary" AS03 adjuvant is a confirmed cause of autoimmune disease. It contain fats and/or oils like squalene, or squalene derivatives that comprise our cellular membranes, nerve myelination (allowing us to conduct nerve impulses), and many other critical biological and physiological functions. When it is used as an adjuvant in a vaccine, the body makes antibody against the adjuvant, as well as the viral component. One becomes hyper-immune to one's own cellular material, and everything from Lupus and MS to Parkinson's and Rheumatoid Arthritis may result. Guillan Barre syndrome is a result of an autoimmune reaction to vaccines in a way that attacks the nervous system. Adjuvants have been used from the start of vaccines- it was aluminum derivitives. Then we bagan using oils- oils that our body makes and uses. These adjuvants are now in every vaccine made. Google AS03 ad read the ingredients. For now, here's a link to ponder. :

Below is content from the link- I hope I formatted it correctly. If not, my apologies- perhaps a firewall issue to fix.



::::GSK works on an A (H1N1) adjuvanted influenza vaccine
GSK reported on May 15 that it expects to manufacture a candidate A (H1N1) adjuvanted influenza vaccine once a virus seed is made available by WHO. The first doses of the vaccine are expected to be available four to six months later, subject to regulatory approval.

The vaccine will consist of the antigen of the recently isolated A (H1N1) influenza strain and also contain GSK's proprietary adjuvant system AS03. An adjuvant system is added to the antigen at the time of administration to stimulate a higher immune response while using a smaller amount of antigen as compared with a formulation without adjuvant.

The new candidate vaccine will require regulatory approval. In 2008, GSK received an European license for a pandemic vaccine based on a mock-up dossier. This approval, which was based on data involving the H5N1 influenza strain, is expected to enable faster registration of a new A (H1N1) influenza vaccine and is currently being discussed with European regulatory authorities, according to GSK.

GSK has received interest from several governments seeking to stockpile the new candidate adjuvanted vaccine. The UK government is interested in purchasing 60 million doses of the candidate A (H1N1) adjuvanted influenza vaccine, the French government 50 million doses, and the Belgium government 12.6 million doses. GSK will supply the Finnish government with 5.3 million doses of H1N1 antigen, which is expected to be used in conjunction with the government’s existing stockpile of GSK’s adjuvant system.:::::::
