The Scotsman claims today that the government is planning to vaccinate the entire UK population against swine flu.
That might turn out to be a wise decision, but I’m a bit concerned about the timescale:
The last people won’t get their flu jab till November 2010.
I’m not sure it can be done any sooner, but if it turns out to be a fast-moving pandemic, I presume half the population might be dead before the government gets a chance to save them.
