No. Not yet. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) on July 24, 2009:

The development of new candidate vaccine viruses by the WHO network is continuing

to improve yields (currently 25% to 50 % of the normal yields for seasonal

influenza for some manufacturers). WHO will be able to revise its estimate of

pandemic vaccine supply once it has the new yield information. Other important

information will also be provided by results of ongoing and soon-to be-initiated

vaccine clinical trials. These trials will give a better idea of the number of

doses required for a person to be immunized, as well as of the quantity on active

principle (antigen) needed in each vaccine dose. Manufacturers are expected to

have vaccines for use around September. A number of companies are working on the

pandemic vaccine production and have different timelines.

When did the FDA approve the H1N1 swine flu vaccination?

September 15, 2009. See the related link below for the FDA announcement of approval.


If you have had H1N1 do you still need to get the shot?

If the correct test was done to confirm the H1N1, then, no there is no need to take it again. But if you are not absolutely sure that the test confirmed the A-H1N1/09 flu, then it will do no harm to take the vaccine. The only test that can be relied upon to be an absolute indicator of the vaccination is the RT-PCR test, and not the rapid tests done in the doctor's offices. you should have some immunity against 2009 H1N1 flu and can choose not to get the 2009 H1N1 vaccine.


If you had H2N2 flu in 1957 do you need H1N1 shot?

Yes. There has never been a vaccine made for a strain that was close enough to the current H1N1/09 pandemic flu to have allowed our immune systems to make antibodies that would be a good fit to the new flu. So, no prior vaccinations will have provided any protection for the pandemic swine flu. When you can get an H1N1/09 flu vaccination, you should go ahead and get one to be protected.
