Site sections include Resources on Vaccine Supply, Influenza Vaccine Bulletins, Priority Groups for Influenza Vaccination, Preventing the Flu, and a Q&A. Also available is a weekly report featuring current US statistics, map, and influenza surveillance. The site also includes Patient and Provider Education Materials, and a video. On October 5, 2004, CDC was notified by Chiron Corporation that none of its influenza vaccine (Fluvirin®) would be available for distribution in the United States for the 200405 influenza season. The company indicated that the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the United Kingdom, where Chirons Fluvirin vaccine is produced, has suspended the companys license to manufacture Fluvirin vaccine in its Liverpool facility for 3 months, preventing any release of this vaccine for this influenza season. This action will reduce by approximately one half the expected supply of trivalent inactivated vaccine (flu shot) available in the United States for the 200405 influenza season. The remaining supply of influenza vaccine expected to be available in the United States this season is nearly 54 million doses of Fluzone® (inactivated flu shot) manufactured by Aventis Pasteur, Inc. Of these doses, approximately 30 million doses already have been distributed by the manufacturer. In addition, approximately 1.1 million doses of live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV/FluMist ®) manufactured by MedImmune will be available this season. Because of this urgent situation, CDC, in coordination with its Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP), is issuing interim recommendations for influenza vaccination during the 200405 season. These interim recommendations were formally recommended by ACIP on October 5, 2004, and take precedence over earlier recommendations.
