Health officials announced today that medical experts are months away from coming up with a vaccine for the swine flu. Although the knowledge to create a vaccine is there it is simply something that takes time.
The swine flu acts just like the regular human influenza as with seasonal flu vaccinations, they are required to be made months in advances and they take time to produce.
The WHO and CDC are hoping that the tamiflu and relenza anti-viral medications can hold over as an effective treatment until a vaccine is available and under mass production.
