Recently, Oxford University researchers discovered a vaccine to protect children from swine flu.
Last year, researchers have included 949 children in their study to develop two vaccines to fight against H1N1 virus.
Among these two vaccines developed researchers found that one vaccine works effectively for young children, reported by Project leader Professor Andrew Pollard. He also said that treatment of flu in children is always the concern for scientists.
He further told that, development of this vaccine will prove beneficial for the future growth of flu vaccines.
Researchers have developed two vaccines namely, Pandemrx and Celvapan, out of which they found Pandemrx to be more effective at creating anti-bodies but according to health department both are god at providing protection against flu.
The participants belong to five areas in the United Kingdom, including Oxfordshire. Researchers have given two doses of the vaccine to the children and they monitored the children for five weeks to view any side effects like high temperature or sore arms but only few children have been found with marginal side effects.
A spokesperson of health department said that it is evident that both the vaccines used in the UK have proved good for children with no side effects.
