I wacthed and listened to the whole clip and was a bit uncertain what the take home message was meant to be. Is he in favour of mass vaccination or not? Here in Australia, the government has rolled out the vaccine - people likely to be most susceptible are to be offered it first - health workers, police etc. Unlike the normal flu vaccine, which is generally given to the elderly, this virus seems to target young fit people. Herring - you have the virus already. If you had not contracted it and had the option of having a vaccine to prevent it, would you have done?
