Greece cancels order for swine flu vaccine

~

Greece has canceled the remaining order for about 8 million batches of the vaccine against the deadly swine flu.

The minister said the vaccination against the A/H1N1 virus had not been popular among the Greek citizens.

Only about 360,000 Greeks have voluntarily received the vaccination up till now, and it is questionable if all the received vaccines would be used until their expiration in 2011.
