Over the next 2 weeks 1000 children will be given the new swine flu vaccine in an attempt to work out which vaccine works best with the least side effects. Experts are predicting the swine flu vaccine will at most cause sore arms and a fever.
The testing comes just weeks before the government are set to launch the first phase of UK swine flu vaccinations. 11 million people have been identified as high risk and will be vaccinated with one of the new swine flu vaccines next month.
Around the UK reports of an increase in the number of swine flu cases continue to grow as children return to school. The UK hopes to limit the number of swine flu cases over the seasonal flu season by vaccinating people with the new swine flu vaccine.
