DEERFIELD, Ill. (UPI) -- Illinois-based Baxter International Inc. said
it expects by early July to release the first commercially available
dosages of H1N1 swine flu vaccine.
Baxter, based in Deerfield, Ill., is one of several vaccine makers
working with the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control to combat the virus, which WHO this week declared a
global pandemic.
Baxter's cell-based technology yields vaccines in about 13 weeks, as
compared to the 24 weeks needed for an older process where millions of
chicken eggs were processed by hand to produce vaccines, the Chicago
Tribune reported Saturday.
