Why bother with the seasonal shot, since nearly all the current flu cases are swine flu?
“The fact that the (seasonal) virus is not circulating now is absolutely no reason not to get vaccinated,” Fauci said. “You would hope that you would get vaccinated before the seasonal flu is circulating so you will have an immune response.”
Fauci said it still appears the bulk of the swine flu vaccine will be available in mid-October, though there is a possibility some may be available sooner, “we hope.”
