Combined Seasonal And Swine Influenza Vaccine

EDM number 926 in 2010-12, proposed by Valerie Vaz on 01/11/2010.
Categorised under the topics of Diseases, Health services and Vaccination.

That this House acknowledges that the seasonal influenza vaccine is being administered in combination with the swine influenza vaccine, with no alternative single seasonal influenza vaccine available; is concerned that many patients are not being made aware of this by their surgeries; notes that this denial both of information and the ability to choose not to receive the swine influenza vaccination undermines the Government's promotion of patient choice; and urges the Government to call on health practitioners to provide full and transparent information about the composition, risks and benefits of such vaccinations.

This motion has been signed by a total of 11 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
