				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><P>미국 CDC에서 돼지독감 바이러스가 여전히 떠돌고 있으며, 특히 미국 남부지역의 앨라배마, 플로리다, 조지아, 켄터키, 미시시피, 노스 캐놀라이나, 사우스 캐롤라이나, 테네시주에서 발병 사례의 50%가 보고되고 있다고 밝혔다는 로이터 통신의 4월 15일자 뉴스입니다.</P><br />
<P>CDC는 2010년 3월 4째주의 경우, 전체 사망자의 7.9%의 사망원인이 폐렴이나 인플루엔자였다고 강조했으며, 0~4세의 영유아의 입원율이 높았다고 밝혔습니다.</P><br />
<P>CDC는 지난 1년간 돼지독감(H1N1) 바이러스 감염에 의해 1만2천명 이상이 사망했을 것이며, 26만 5천명 이상이 입원했을 것으로 추정했습니다.<BR></P><br />
<P>지난 주 조에 WHO 응급위원회의 존 매킨지( John Mackenzie) 는 신종플루 대유행(H1N1 flu pandemic is) 바이러스는 3백만명 이상의 사망자를 낸 1957년과 1968년 인플루엔자 바이러스만큼 병독력이 강하다는 발언을 했다고 합니다.(존 매킨지가 과학적 근거가 부족한&nbsp;이러한 발언에 어떻게 책임을 지려는지 지켜봐야겠습니다.)<BR><BR>미국이 주문한 1억6천2백만명분의 돼지독감 백신 중에서 8천1백만~9천1백만명(50~56%) 분만이 예방접종되었다고 밝혔습니다.(주문량의 50~56% 소모) <BR><BR>따라서 8천1백만~1천1백만명분의 백신재고량이 유효기간이 지나면 폐기처분될 상황에 직면해 있습니다. <BR><BR>그러므로 WHO 고위관계자나 미 CDC에서 돼지독감 위험에 대해 지속적인 경고를 하는 이유는 재고백신을 처리하기 위한 목적이 더 강한 것으로 보입니다.</P><br />
<P>=======================================</P><br />
<P>H1N1 swine flu still around, CDC says</P><br />
<P>Source: (Reuters) Thu Apr 15, 3:13 pm ET<BR><BR>WASHINGTON (Reuters) – H1N1 swine flu continues to cause epidemics, especially in the southeast of the United States, U.S. federal researchers reported on Thursday.</P><br />
<P>Americans who have not been vaccinated should still try to get the shot or nasal spray, the team at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.</P><br />
<P>The CDC&#8217;s weekly surveillance report on influenza mirrors the World Health Organization&#8217;s warning that the pandemic continues, although at low levels. As long as the virus is being passed among people, it could change and re-emerge at any time, infectious disease specialists say.</P><br />
<P>&#8220;For the week ending March 27, 2010, pneumonia or influenza was reported as an underlying or contributing cause of death for 7.9 percent of all deaths&#8221; in the United States, the CDC said. This is slightly above the epidemic threshold of 7.8 percent that the CDC has set for the last week of March.</P><br />
<P>More than half the reported cases were in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee.</P><br />
<P>Children were the hardest-hit, in contrast to seasonal influenza, which is usually worst among the elderly.</P><br />
<P>&#8220;This season&#8217;s cumulative hospitalization rates from August 30, 2009, through the week ending March 27, 2010, remain highest in children aged 0-4 years,&#8221; the CDC said.</P><br />
<P>Earlier this week John Mackenzie of the WHO&#8217;s Emergency Committee said the H1N1 flu pandemic is as severe as influenza pandemics in 1957 and 1968 &#8212; which killed 3 million people between them.</P><br />
<P>The CDC estimates that H1N1 has killed 12,000 Americans and put more than 265,000 in hospital.</P><br />
<P>Between 81 and 91 million doses of influenza vaccine have been administered of the 162 million doses shipped across the country, the center said.</P><br />
<P>Early in the pandemic, there were long lines of people clamoring for H1N1 vaccines but there was not enough to go around. By the time vaccines were available in ample supplies, most of the public had lost interest.</P><br />
<P>The United States has contracts with five influenza vaccine makers &#8212; Novartis, AstraZeneca unit MedImmune, Sanofi Aventis, GlaxoSmithKline and Australian vaccine maker CSL.</P><br />

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>아스트라제네카의 신종플루 비강 스프레이 백신이 낮은 효능성으로 인해 대규모 리콜에 들어갔다는 소식입니다.<BR><BR>===============================<BR><BR><SPAN class=news_story_title style="DISPLAY: inline">AstraZeneca’s Swine Flu Nasal Spray Recalled for Lower Potency <BR><BR>By Tom Randall<BR><BR><br />
<P>Dec. 23 (Bloomberg)<BR><A href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601102&#038;sid=ahaLdhKkNE0c">http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601102&#038;sid=ahaLdhKkNE0c</A><BR>&nbsp;<BR>&#8211; <A href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/quote?ticker=AZN%3ALN" T_ABOVE="true" T_STATIC="true" T_FONTCOLOR="#000000" T_FONTFACE="Verdana,sans-serif" T_BGCOLOR="#ddedd9" T_WIDTH="110" T_DELAY="50">AstraZeneca Plc</A> recalled 4.7 million doses of its nasal spray version of the swine flu vaccine after routine tests showed a decline in potency, U.S. regulators said. </P><br />
<P>The doses remain safe, and people who have already been inoculated don’t need to get vaccinated again, said <A href="http://search.bloomberg.com/search?q=Norman%0ABaylor&#038;site=wnews&#038;client=wnews&#038;proxystylesheet=wnews&#038;output=xml_no_dtd&#038;ie=UTF-8&#038;oe=UTF-8&#038;filter=p&#038;getfields=wnnis&#038;sort=date:D:S:d1" T_ABOVE="true" T_STATIC="true" T_FONTCOLOR="#000000" T_FONTFACE="Verdana,sans-serif" T_BGCOLOR="#ddedd9" T_WIDTH="110" T_DELAY="50">Norman Baylor</A>, director of vaccines research and review for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. About 3,000 of the affected doses remain in warehouses, and AstraZeneca will send recall notices to clinics that may have unused vials of the vaccine. </P><br />
<P>The recall follows a similar move on Dec. 15 by Paris-based <A href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/quote?ticker=SAN%3AFP" T_ABOVE="true" T_STATIC="true" T_FONTCOLOR="#000000" T_FONTFACE="Verdana,sans-serif" T_BGCOLOR="#ddedd9" T_WIDTH="110" T_DELAY="50">Sanofi-Aventis SA</A>, which recalled 800,000 swine flu shots. Manufacturers maintain samples for testing from each vaccine lot that is shipped, and they continue to test them for waning potency, Baylor said. Both recalls were made voluntarily after the strength dropped below pre-specified thresholds. </P><br />
<P>“There are no safety concerns with these lots,” Baylor said in a conference call with reporters yesterday. “We do see a decline in potency every now and then.” </P><br />
<P>The doses were distributed in October and early November, and the “vast majority” have already been administered, said Tor Constantino, a spokesman for London-based AstraZeneca, in a telephone interview yesterday. The doses passed all potency tests before the vaccines were shipped. The company has never seen a similar potency decline with its seasonal-flu version of the FluMist nasal spray vaccine, he said. </P><br />
<P>60 Million Vaccinated </P><br />
<P>At least 60 million people in the U.S. have received one of several kinds of swine flu vaccine, out of 111 million doses available as of this week, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported yesterday. After initially limited supplies, most states are now offering free inoculations to anyone who wants one, said <A href="http://search.bloomberg.com/search?q=Anne+Schuchat&#038;site=wnews&#038;client=wnews&#038;proxystylesheet=wnews&#038;output=xml_no_dtd&#038;ie=UTF-8&#038;oe=UTF-8&#038;filter=p&#038;getfields=wnnis&#038;sort=date:D:S:d1" T_ABOVE="true" T_STATIC="true" T_FONTCOLOR="#000000" T_FONTFACE="Verdana,sans-serif" T_BGCOLOR="#ddedd9" T_WIDTH="110" T_DELAY="50">Anne Schuchat</A>, head of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, on a conference call. </P><br />
<P>AstraZeneca has shipped 23 million doses out of its contract for 40 million with the U.S. Health and Human Services Department, Constantino said. The U.S. ordered 251 million doses of swine flu vaccine from five companies, and most states now have enough to offer the vaccine to people of all ages. The shots and nasal sprays are paid for by the U.S. government, though clinics can charge a fee to administer them. </P><br />
<P><A href="http://www.flu.gov/" target=_blank T_ABOVE="true" T_STATIC="true" T_FONTCOLOR="#000000" T_FONTFACE="Verdana,sans-serif" T_BGCOLOR="#ddedd9" T_WIDTH="120" T_DELAY="50">Vaccine availability</A> across the country has been rising, even as illnesses are on the wane, according to the CDC. Swine flu rates have fallen for seven straight weeks and are at their lowest level since pupils returned to classes in September. </P><br />
<P>Clinging Antigen </P><br />
<P>Sanofi’s decreased vaccine potency may have been due to the key ingredient, antigen, clinging to the wall of the syringe over time, the CDC’s Schuchat said after the recall. </P><br />
<P>AstraZeneca’s vaccine has a different type of applicator and is made using a different process, the FDA’s Baylor said. Scientists are still trying to determine what was responsible for the reduced potency. Such decreases are rare but not unheard of, he said. A batch of seasonal flu vaccine was recalled for the same reason in February, FDA spokeswoman <A href="http://search.bloomberg.com/search?q=Karen+Riley&#038;site=wnews&#038;client=wnews&#038;proxystylesheet=wnews&#038;output=xml_no_dtd&#038;ie=UTF-8&#038;oe=UTF-8&#038;filter=p&#038;getfields=wnnis&#038;sort=date:D:S:d1" T_ABOVE="true" T_STATIC="true" T_FONTCOLOR="#000000" T_FONTFACE="Verdana,sans-serif" T_BGCOLOR="#ddedd9" T_WIDTH="110" T_DELAY="50">Karen Riley</A> said in yesterday’s conference call. </P><br />
<P>H1N1 infected 50 million people in the U.S. and killed an estimated 10,000 through Nov. 14 from the start of the pandemic in April, according to CDC estimates reported Dec. 10. About 36,000 people die each year in the U.S. from influenza. </P><br />
<P>Most swine flu infections are no worse than seasonal flu, according to CDC officials. In rare cases the disease leads to severe illness and death in otherwise health people. Unlike seasonal flu, swine flu disproportionately attacks the young. In a typical flu season, 90 percent of deaths are over age 65; with swine flu, the effects are reversed, with 90 percent of deaths under age 65. </P><br />

<P>In recent weeks, humans have not been the only mammals to contract H1N1. Several cats and ferrets have contracted the virus proving that animals are susceptible to swine flu as well. <BR>“The influenza virus has molecules on its surface that allow it to attach to host cells.&nbsp; Many species of animals have influenza, but usually a particular strain of the influenza virus is restricted to infect only its specific host,” Laura Vogel, associate professor of immunity, said. <BR>“For example, we know that there is a canine influenza virus that can make dogs sick and spread from dog to dog, but people can’t get that strain of the virus.”<BR><BR>The H1N1 virus, however, has mutated so that it is able to attach to host cells of other animals and humans, thus infecting them with the virus. <BR><BR>“The problem is that influenza viruses can change their surface molecules, and when this happens, which is rare, the virus can infect a new type of host.&nbsp; That is what happened in the case of H1N1, which seems to have properties of influenza viruses that would normally infect only birds, only pigs or only people.&nbsp; This new mutated virus then can infect more host species.” <BR><BR>H. Tak Cheung, director of the school of biological sciences, explained the virus is much like a key and lock phenomenon. <BR><BR>“The virus must have the right key to open the right lock in order to get entry to the cells. The key that would unlock human or pig cells would not unlock the other type. However, imagine the key makers might make a tiny little error in making the key, and this is the result of mutation, a change in the genetic material of the virus…this slight change will allow, normally, a virus for a pig to fit humans. Now this virus crossed the species barrier.”<BR><BR>Humans are also able to pass the flu to animals through the same methods. <BR><BR>“Of course the same thing can go in the opposite direction, a virus normally for humans will be able to infect a pig, because of this change in the protein through mutation… The lock can also change, allowing it to fit the key,” he said.<BR><BR>“Primate cells are very similar to our cells and most human influenza viruses can infect other primates.&nbsp; This is a rare event, but again not surprising since the virus can change its surface molecules,” Vogel said. <BR><BR>“The reason people worry is because it normally infects pigs, because it infects pigs, it has structures slightly different from a virus that would normally infect the human population,” Cheung said.<BR><BR>“If this virus crosses the species barrier, it might cause more serious infections because the population might not have immunity against this specific virus because it’s new and many people will be susceptible to it,” he explained.<BR><BR>“The influenza virus has a very, very high rate of mutation and this allows it to change rapidly… This change is responsible for the continuing threat of the influenza virus every season,” he continued.<BR><BR>“Normally the virus only changes slightly from one season to another when it is a human influenza virus, but then when you have a virus that jumps the species barrier, the population becomes far more vulnerable because it comes from another animal. This incidence of jumping across the species barrier does not occur frequently, but when it does occur, it creates a much greater threat as compared to the influenza viral strain that occurs in humans from one season to another.”<BR><BR>Vogel explained there are many diseases that spread between animals and people.&nbsp; These are referred to as zoonotic diseases and include familiar diseases such as rabies and West Nile virus. <BR><BR>“At this time, there aren’t any reports of people catching the H1N1 from their pets and you are much more likely to catch it from an infected person,” she said. <BR><BR>“Don’t forget this virus is easily killed by basic sanitation methods like soap and disinfectants.&nbsp; It is killed at normal cooking temperatures and not very stable on surfaces, so it is primarily spread through respiratory droplets.&nbsp; The study of zoonotic diseases has become increasingly important with the emergence of new diseases like H1N1, West Nile and ‘bird flu.’” <BR></P></p>

<P>SAO PAULO (AFP) – <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_0>Brazil</SPAN> now has 557 swine flu deaths, making it the country with the highest number of fatalities in the world from the disease, according to figures announced by the health ministry Wednesday.</P><br />
<P>The toll puts it ahead of the latest count from the United States, which as of August 20 had 522 swine flu deaths, according to the US <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_1 style="BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; CURSOR: hand; BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</SPAN>.</P><br />
<P>Brazil&#8217;s health ministry said in a statement the government was freeing up <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_2>one billion dollars</SPAN> to buy 73 million doses of a new vaccine being developed against swine flu, as well as Tamiflu stocks, hospital equipment and diagnostic gear.</P><br />
<P>It added that the infection rate appeared to be diminishing in the country, which is about to exit the <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_3>southern hemisphere winter</SPAN> at the end of this month.</P><br />
<P>The ministry stressed that, as a ratio of its population of 190 million, Brazil&#8217;s mortality rate from the virus ranked 7th in the world.</P><br />
<P><SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_4>Argentina</SPAN>, <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_5>Chile</SPAN>, <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_6>Costa Rica</SPAN>, <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_7 style="CURSOR: hand; BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">Uruguay</SPAN>, <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_8>Australia</SPAN> and Paraguay all had higher rates on that basis, it said, referring to data from the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control.</P><br />
<P>The United States, which has a population of 300 million, came 13th on the list.</P><br />
<P>The Americas is the worst-hit region in the world in terms of swine flu deaths, accounting for more than 90 percent of the global count given by the <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1251329028_9 style="CURSOR: hand; BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed">World Health Organization</SPAN>.</P><br />
<P>After Brazil and the United States, Argentina is the country to suffer the most, with at least 439 swine flu deaths.</P><br />

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><P>신종플루 지역사회 집단 감염 확산<BR>&nbsp;<BR>오늘중 900명 넘을듯<BR>정부, 이르면 오늘 대응방식 전환<BR><BR>출처 : 연합뉴스&nbsp;&nbsp;2009/07/20 09:07 <BR><A href="http://www.yonhapnews.co.kr/bulletin/2009/07/20/0200000000AKR20090720033000017.HTML?did=1179m">http://www.yonhapnews.co.kr/bulletin/2009/07/20/0200000000AKR20090720033000017.HTML?did=1179m</A></P><br />
<P>(서울=연합뉴스) 하채림 기자 = 신종인플루엔자의 지역사회 집단 감염이 확산되면서 감염 환자 수가 865명으로 늘었다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 이에따라 정부는 이르면 20일 신종플루 대응방식을 현행 &#8216;예방&#8217;에서 &#8216;치료&#8217; 중심으로 전환하고 21일 국무총리 주재로 관계부처 회의를 열어 부처별 대응책을 논의할 방침이다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 보건복지가족부 중앙인플루엔자대책본부는 부산의 한 초등학교에서 20명의 새 환자가 추가되는 등 전국적으로 38명이 새로 인플루엔자 A(H1N1)로 확진됐다고 20일 밝혔다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 19일 신종인플루엔자 발생이 공식 확인된 이 초등학교의 집단 감염 규모는 31명으로 늘었다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 초기에 증상을 보인 학생들은 외국을 다녀온 적이 없고 환자와 접촉하지도 않아 감염경로가 불분명한 &#8216;지역사회 감염&#8217;으로 추정된다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 또 싱가포르에서 열린 국제 스포츠행사에 참가했다가 19일 귀국한 선수단 일행 4명도 검역소 발열감시에서 증세가 확인된 후 이날 확진 판정을 받았다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 이밖에 서초구 소재 고등학교(누계 25명)와 필리핀 선교여행단원 각 1명 등 14명도 이날 신종플루 감염이 확인됐다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 이로써 국내 신종인플루엔자 환자는 865명으로 늘었으며 이 가운데 치료가 종결되지 않은 154명이 격리 입원치료를 받고 있다 .</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 강원도 춘천과 경기도 부천, 서울 서초에 이어 부산에서도 지역사회 감염으로 추정되는 집단 발병이 발생함에 따라 보건당국은 신종플루 대응 방식을 전환할 계획이다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 전국적으로 바이러스가 침투한 만큼 환자 전원을 격리하고 개개인에 대한 정밀 역학조사를 실시하는 것이 무의미해지고 있다는 판단에 따른 것이다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 환자 급증에 따라 1인당 시약값만 12만원이나 드는 신종플루 검사비와 역학조사 비용도 눈덩이처럼 불어나고 있다고 대책본부는 전했다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 이에 따라 격리 입원치료와 입국자 발열감시, 환자 전원에 대한 정밀 역학조사 .추적조사등이 금명간 중단되고 임산부 등 고위험군 환자 선별 격리치료, 일반 감염자 처방후 치료제 투약 등 후속조치가 마련될 것으로 보인다.</P><br />
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp; 질병관리본부 전병율 전염병대응센터장은 &#8220;전문가 의견 수렴 등을 거쳐 이르면 오늘중으로 신종인플루엔자 대응 방식 전환을 결정할 것&#8221;이라고 말했다.</P><br />

<DIV class=yn-story-content><br />
<P>GENEVA (AFP) – Developing countries could need about one billion dollars by the end of the year to fund measures against the <A class=kLink id=KonaLink0 target=undefined><FONT class=klinkFont style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed" color=#000000><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">swine</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;flu</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;pandemic</SPAN></FONT></A>, especially vaccines, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said Monday.</P><br />
<P>Asked about his estimate of their needs ahead of a meeting with donor nations on funding for influenza A (<A class=kLink id=KonaLink1 target=undefined><FONT class=klinkFont style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed" color=#000000><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">H1N1</SPAN></FONT></A>), Ban said: &#8220;For the remainder of this year our estimate is that we may need a little over one billion dollars.&#8221;</P><br />
<P>Funding had &#8220;not been flowing as expected,&#8221; following appeals in recent weeks, he added.</P><br />
<P>More resources were needed especially to fund swine flu vaccines for developing nations that could not afford them, he added.</P><br />
<P>&#8220;This <A class=kLink id=KonaLink2 target=undefined><FONT class=klinkFont style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed" color=#000000><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">pandemic</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;flu</SPAN></FONT></A> is also a sort of a global crisis which needs global response through global partnership and solidarity,&#8221; said Ban.</P><br />
<P>WHO <A class=kLink id=KonaLink3 target=undefined><FONT class=klinkFont style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed" color=#000000><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">Director</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;General</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;Margaret</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;Chan</SPAN></FONT></A> was due to take part in the meeting with representatives of main potential donor nations in Geneva.</P><br />
<P>Chan said last week that access to a <A class=kLink id=KonaLink4 target=undefined><FONT class=klinkFont style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed" color=#000000><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">swine</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;flu</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;vaccine</SPAN></FONT></A> remained a &#8220;critical question.&#8221;</P><br />
<P>A senior official at the UN health agency suggested that obtaining &#8220;political goodwill&#8221; for support to <A class=kLink id=KonaLink5 target=undefined><FONT class=klinkFont style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed" color=#000000><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">poor</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;nations</SPAN></FONT></A> was problematic.</P><br />
<P>Ban noted that a swine flu vaccine was in the pipeline for August and that pharmaceutical companies had made commitments on supply.</P><br />

<P>Some 94,512 people have been infected in more than 130 countries and territories, as the virus continues to make inroads in the <A class=kLink id=KonaLink7 target=undefined><FONT class=klinkFont style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #0066cc 1px dashed" color=#000000><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">southern</SPAN><SPAN class=kLink style="FONT-WEIGHT: 400; MARGIN-BOTTOM: -2pt; COLOR: #000000! important; FONT-FAMILY: arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif; POSITION: relative">&nbsp;hemisphere</SPAN></FONT></A> during the main flu season.</P><br />
<P>However, countries such as the United States believe they have had far more untested cases because of its relatively mild symptoms.</P><br />
<P>US officials have estimated that there have been a million cases in the country.</P><br />
