Flu vaccine stock is running out: "It is recommended to maintain hygiene"
VP of Information and International Affairs of the Ministry of Health: "HMOs reached almost the red line, and flu vaccine"
Panic flu vaccines resulted in inventory sold out policyholders who vaccinated had to return back. The high demand for vaccine is probably also a boy's flu death 16 of her room the other day. The boy had no comorbidities.
"HMOs were almost the red line, and flu vaccine," said Yair Amikam day, Vice President Information and International Affairs of the Ministry of Health. "Apart from a national HMO, which has a small amount of vaccines." Immunizations are available few branches of all the health funds, and privately purchased in pharmacies. Which, as far as, the stock has not yet expired.
In spite of Amikam, HMO subsidiary claim that there is no shortage of vaccines currently.
"Every year is over vaccines"
"Every year a limited operation was conducted during the flu vaccine," said a spokeswoman for the general. "Each year, the funds buy more vaccines Mshnerachshu last year, and every year at some point run out of vaccines, then ends the operation."
However, Amikam claims that he does not remember a year in which over vaccinations when demand was still so high. "In previous years the funds were left with surplus vaccine had to throw them in the bin." The question of what the funds will now, he replies: "First, the funds are turning to buying extra vaccine from each other. We check the option to make an emergency purchase, but if additional doses will be invited tomorrow, they will be just another week to ten days, and it's too late season, not sure the vaccine to be effective. "
- What do people not vaccinated can do to stay healthy?
"Most hygiene careful not to stay in large groups of people, especially in closed areas."
