10m Doses of Avian Flu Vaccines Imported

Iran Veterinary Organization imported 10 million doses of avian flu vaccines during the last three weeks, IRNA quoted Karim Ghanei, the authority in charge of IVO’s Taskforce to Fight Aviation Flu as saying on Thursday.
Ghanei added that plans are underway to import another 10 million doses for the second phase of campaign against the deadly virus as well as 100 million doses for the subsequent phases.
“The avian flu virus activity is usually reduced during the first six months of the year but it strikes with added power during the second half,” he said.
