Jordan flu vaccine to be delayed

  • Jordan: Sunday, July 26 - 2009 at 11:04

Jordan's Ministry of Health has said that due to a lengthy order list and intense demand for the vaccine, the kingdom may not receive the first batch of swine flu vaccine until January of next year, not September as previously announced, the Jordan Times has reported. A January shipment would mean that the vaccine would not be available ahead of Hajj season, during which officials had previously expressed hope to vaccinate 15% of the population, particularly pilgrims.
