Unfortunately, there are no vaccines which can contain the swine flu virus that killed many in Mexico and sickened at least 2,000 people in the rest of the world. As the swine flu viruses can change quickly and can go through a form of mutation rapidly, medical professionals are working in light speed to develop a vaccine that can stop the circulation of the virus strain.
As for the medicines which can provide treatment of the swine influenza (H1N1), sources from the World Health Organization (WHO) indicate that the swine flu viruses in the United States are sensitive to inhibitors of influenza neuraminidase (oseltamivir and zanamivir). Oseltamivir is actually the brand entitled “Tamiflu” and Zanamivir is “Relenza”.
