Just heard on the BBC that we are exporting UK vaccine to the States. Great stuff! My wife, a teacher, was refused the flu vaccine last week because (she was told by the nurse) the stuff is so scarce here and she is not considered at risk. I'm on the risk list and fortunately got my shot a couple of weeks ago - just as well if someone's selling our stuff to the US. Now I don't begrudge our American friends flu protection but not at the expense of those who need it here. You would think a country the size of the US could produce enough flu vaccine for themselves and half the rest of the world as well. Obviously not! Scarce flu vaccine from UK to US, contaminated warships from US to UK - not really a fair exchange!!
