There are few cases of swine flu in Hyderabad. Few deaths have already been reported (around 45). Can a vaccination for swine flu protects an individual with the disease? Please advise. Thanks

Dear, Vaccination is to prevent the occurrence of the disease. Vaccination for swine flu is not specific for swine flu only, it is for three flu types, which will act after the second dose, which takes one month duration .I personally don't advise vaccination for flu,instead you have preventive medicine in homeo.
