U.K. seeks 10 million vaccine doses to mitigate bird flu risk
U.K. seeks 10 million vaccine doses to mitigate bird flu risk
Bloomberg
July 12, 2006
The U.K. is seeking 10 million extra doses of vaccine that may be used to immunize poultry against bird flu after the lethal H5N1 strain of the virus was reported for the first time in Spain last week.
The vaccine will protect fowl and other captive birds against H5 and H7 subtypes of avian influenza, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, known as Defra, said yesterday. The inoculations will be used only if a risk assessment and scientific evidence indicate they will help to prevent the spread of the disease, it said.
