Fears over NHS child flu vaccine after it was withdrawn in US
Concerns about the long-term viability of the NHS's new child flu vaccine have emerged after it was withdrawn from use in the US, the Standard can reveal.Experts at Imperial College London fear that the nasal spray, currently being given to two- to seven-year-olds, could be withdrawn if the manufacturer fears it is no longer financially viable.This could place the wider community at risk as school pupils have been found to be the biggest carriers of the virus, which causes about 25,000 winter deaths every year in the UK.
