Today, Sen. Bob Graham and I kicked off the Faster Vaccines Campaign. The United States—unlike the European Union and China—continues to use a 60-year old production method, using chicken eggs, to make H1N1 and other important vaccines. This is not just a public health problem, it is a national security threat. As you know, threats against our national security are also a threat to economic security.  You can read more about this correlation in our Focus on Defense section.

Watch the video and share it with others. More people need understand the importance of supporting faster alternatives that are just as safe. Send your comments to preventwmd.gov, and we will pass along your thoughts to those who can make a difference in Congress and the White House.
