  Robert Sakulanda

  "There will be vaccines for everyone", said Kathleen Sebelius, US Health Secretary. The Food & Drug Administration has cleared vaccines from Sanofi-Aventis SA, CSL Ltd, Medimmune and Norvartis AG to help prevent the H1N1 strain of Infuenza (Swine Flu) according to Kathleen, however not all 300 million Americans will take the vaccine, some will opt out. Should we take it or opt out? To answer this question we ask Atlanta, GA based Zambian-born Top Doctor, Robert Sakulanda to guide us through the H1N1 confusion. Dr. Sakulanda's medical advice is good for every listener around the world.
