			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The New England Journal has the first two clinical trials of the H1N1 Influenza vaccine.&nbsp; The data are summarized in an editorial: <a href="http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/full/NEJMe0908224?query=TOC">NEJM &#8212; Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Policy &#8212; Considering the Early Evidence</a>.</p>
<p>The standard vaccine seems to generate an adequate immune response in healthy adults after a single dose.&nbsp; It depends on the results of other trials, but maybe we&#8217;ll only need one dose of this vaccine.&nbsp; They were talking about two doses for everyone, which would pose a problem since supplies will be limited.</p>
<p>One dose should also be OK for older kids and pregnant women.&nbsp; No data yet on younger children and immunosuppressed persons (older and/or with chronic diseases).</p>
<p>No major adverse effects seen but the studies were not large enough to detect rare side effects.<br />
