The Australian government has ordered 21 million doses of the untested, not-yet created swine flu (H1N1) vaccine. This is enough to vaccinate every man, woman and child in this country. There is no information yet on the cost of this venture, but it has to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Would they be spending this money if they didn’t know in advance that we would all have to submit to this shot?
Swine flu vaccine rolled out from October
Australia's chief medical officer is expecting to begin a nationwide swine flu vaccination program in October.
The Federal Government has ordered 21 million doses of a swine flu vaccine, which is still being tested.
Professor Jim Bishop told the Seven Network the vaccine order would cover all of the nation's population if only one dose is needed, or half the population if two doses are required.
He said the launch of the immunisation program will be dependent on successful trials of the vaccine.
"We need to do some trials to make sure it's safe, so we're saying by October we should be able to start a program, but that depends really on manufacture being successful," he said.
