As per non official figures and rough estimates Swine flu has affected one third of the total population of the world in the recent years. People are now scared of this disease as there is no vaccination for it. Scientists are doing research to find the vaccines that can be efficient in saving from attacks of swine flu. The vaccination which is available today for protection against swine flu has many disadvantages and accordingly doctors suggest their patients to take swine flu vaccine at your own risk. In the year 1976 the swine flu had occurred and infected many of the soldiers of America and was on the verge of spreading to common man. Seeing the effects the government of United States that time distributed a vaccine for saving people from the attacks of swine flu. About 48 million people took this vaccine and 532 of them suffered from guillain-barre syndrome. Soon this project was dropped by the government. Since then there is no perfect medicine for the swine flu. Whenever there is pandemic of swine flu government of different nations distribute antiviral medicines, nasal sprays, flu vaccination to people which saves people only from seasonal flu and not from swine flu. These medicines are given as safety measures. And it is also suggested that you take swine flu vaccine at your own risk.
Some doctors are in favor of vaccination against swine flu and some are not. The only reason for favoring this vaccine is to make people protective before the arrival of the swine flu viruses. Most of the doctors don’t favor these medicines nor do they tell their pharmacies to sell this product because no satisfactory trials have been conducted yet by a competent authority like FDA and nothing can be said unless the testing is done. Many testing protocols were ignored to get people vaccinated on time. Many people who took this vaccine suffered form mild to moderate side effects such as skin rashes, swelling of skin, tenderness, itching etc. In addition this vaccine has also not been efficient in saving all those people from the attacks of swine flu who took this vaccine. But doctor are often forced to say their patients to take swine flu vaccine at your own risk because there is no other medicine for developing immune system of the body against swine flu.
Seeing the side effects and other dangerous effects of this vaccine researchers are trying to get vaccine for swine flu which can not only protect and prevent from the attacks of H1N1 viruses but also are devoid of side effects so that people can get vaccinated without any tension and remain free from the panics of swine flu.
A few days back it was circulated by media that scientists have won the race and discovered a vaccine against swine flu. They have also tested it many times to know whether it has any side effects or not and say that this vaccine has passed the all the phases of clinical trials and people will get an opportunity to take advantage of this medicine in the coming season. If this vaccine shows expected results then you will not be forced to take swine flu vaccine at your own risk.
