President Obama talks extensively of the US Government plans for H1N1 Pandemic, as well as prevention of H1N1 virus/Swine flu, vaccination production plans, and H1N1 Virus treatments.
Mr. Obama said the government is distributing drugs that can defeat the current strain of H1N1.
“We began this week with 50 million courses of this treatment in the strategic national stockpile. Over the course of the last few days, we have delivered one-quarter of that stockpile to states, so that they are prepared to treat anyone who is infected with this virus,” he said.
“Out of an abundance of caution, I have also asked Congress for $1.5 billion, if it is needed, to purchase additional antivirals, emergency equipment, and the development of a vaccine that can prevent this virus as we prepare for the next flu season, in the fall,” he explained.
