World's First Swine Flu (Influenza A (H1N1)?) Vaccine Trials

Approximately 400 healthy children across Australia will take part in the world's first swine flu (note: throughout this news article, there was no mention of Influenza A (H1N1) but instead, was referred to as swine flu. As far as I know, they are the same) vaccine trial. Trials on adults had already begun. Hopefully, the vaccine will be available for distribution come October.

The trials will be based on proven technology, i.e. through the seasonal flu vaccination method.
