CDC Recalls Kids Swine Flu Vaccine


ATLANTA, GA -- Health officials are recalling hundreds of thousands of doses of swine flu vaccine after tests indicated they may not be potent enough to protect against the virus.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention notified doctors about the recall Tuesday. The recall involves about 800,000 doses made by Sanofi Pasteur. The doses are pre-filled syringes intended for young children, ages 6 months to almost three years.

Health officials recommend children those ages get two doses, spaced about a month apart.

Health officials say it's not clear how many doses have already been given, but they don't think children need to be re-vaccinated.

1. So hundreds of parents who thought their little ones were protected

are SOL, and they paid for that non-protection too.

with their oh-so-concerned parents greedily along for the paranoid ride.
