Re: Tamiflu resistant swine flu

On reading the article on the link provided a few words seemed to stand out

Quote:
Five patients on a unit treating people with severe underlying health conditions at the University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, were infected.
Recently they started giving people the swine flu vaccine

Had these people with the resistant strain previously had the swine flu vaccine? As they would come under the vaccine programme due to being considered seriously ill hospital patients so would be in the "priority group" to be given the jab. Could the vaccine have played a part in this at all?

just my 2p's worth. I'm just waiting for my GP to get in touch as with my RA I'm on the list to get the jab, and as yet I'm undecided about having it.
