Swine flu vaccine: Safety, effectiveness, and side effects

Swine influenza, or swine flu, typically refers to a variant of an influenza virus that normally circulates in pigs but can infect humans.

The first swine flu outbreak in Swine flu vaccines are safe and can prevent disease. However, the 1976 vaccine rollout caused health problems for many people who were not at risk of contracting the virus.

Trump Misleads on H1N1 Swine Flu Testing

• • • • • Deflecting attention from the rise in COVID-19 cases, President Donald Trump has repeatedly said the Obama administration “stopped testing” during the H1N1 pandemic. He’s correct that individual reporting was halted after a few months, but some testing did continue — and the two viruses are very different, making the comparison misleading. Whereas pandemic H1N1 influenza was no worse than the seasonal flu, and testing did not play much of a role in controlling the spread of the virus, COVID-19 is far more deadly, and testing is critical for contact tracing and isolation. Trump first mentioned the Obama administration’s decision to halt reporting of individual H1N1 influenza cases at a July 13 roundtable on law enforcement, when the president was asked by a reporter whether he would acknowledge that coronavirus cases were rising because of increased spread of the virus, and not just because of testing, as Trump has frequently claimed . In response, Trump falsely said that the U.S. has one of the lowest COVID-19 mortality rates — it does not — and then proceeded to say that President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden “stopped testing” during the 2009 pandemic. Trump, July 13: If you know, Biden and Obama stopped their testing; they just stopped it. You probably know that. I’m sure you don’t want to report it. But they stopped testing. Right in the middle, they just went, “No more testing,” and on a much lesser problem than the problem that we have, obviousl...

What Is Swine Flu (H1N1)?

Verywell / Lara Antal History The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that H1N1 was first detected in April 2009 in two 10-year-olds, a boy and a girl living in California. The global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) in June 2009 and was over in August 2010. If you are healthy and have a fever, sore throat, or other signs of the flu, you probably don't need medical attention. But people who have underlying medical issues, like diabetes, should contact their healthcare provider right away. Lab tests can confirm type A influenza. Treatment H1N1 flu is a virus just like any other strain of flu. The antiviral medications Tamiflu and Relenza do not cure the illness, but they may make it shorter and the symptoms less severe. They also may help you avoid it altogether if you are exposed. • Jilani T, Siddiqui A. . • Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. • Dawood F, Iuliano A, Reed C et al.
