Swine flu vaccines to be tested before being given to patients
Swine flu vaccines that are arriving in the Kingdom shortly will be tried and tested before they are given to patients, Health Minister Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah told the Health Services Council on Sunday night.
The Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday it has authorized the emergency use of a swine flu test for US troops overseas, allowing the military to speed up diagnoses and treatment of a virus that could cause widespread infections again this fall.
