"U.S. Further Rations Meningitis
Vaccine" Wall Street Journal (03/03/04) |
This is the vaccine for pneumococcal meningitis
| In February, U.S. health officials had asked pediatricians to delay the fourth and final dose of a pneumococcal vaccine series for their child patients so that infants could be assured of receiving the first several doses of the shot as the vaccine, called Prevnar, has been in short supply. Now, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is asking that doctors also delay the third shot in the series as Prevnar continues to experience manufacturing problems. A spokesman for Prevnar's maker, Wyeth, said that production was back on track until the company had unforeseen shutdowns of a filling line in the past month. The company believes that the trouble is short-term in nature, but believes that Prevnar will be hard to come by until mid-2004. (Web Link) |
