Scientists Publishing in Nature Call for the Diversification of Antiviral Stockpiles Structural and enzymatic studies of oseltamivir-resistant H5N1 human isolates demonstrated retained susceptibility to Relenza The mechanisms of oseltamivir resistance are the same as those in H1N1 resistant isolates ' Our results indicate that it would be prudent for pandemic stockpiles of oseltamivir to be augmented by additional antiviral drugs, including zanamivir. It has been proposed that the closer neuraminidase inhibitors such as oseltamivir and zanamivir resemble the natural substrate the less likely they are to select-drug resistant mutant viruses that retain activity Collins PJ et al.

Stockpiling a pre-pandemic vaccine is one of the key medical preparedness measures 3 key characteristics necessary A pre-pandemic vaccine offers potential for earlier protection, provided that 1. It has an acceptable safety profile and is well tolerated 2. It can be produced in sufficient quantities to immunise a critical mass of the population 3. It offers protection against a broad range of mutated variants of the threat virus GSK s candidate pre-pandemic H5N1 vaccine is an adjuvanted inactivated split vaccine Vaccine strain provided by NIBSC or other WHO reference laboratory. Strain used in vaccine: A/ Vietnam/1194/2004 A/Indonesia/5/2005 3.75µg HA per AS adjuvant (oil-in-water emulsion, squalene, tween-80, and α- tocopherol) 2 vial system, multi presentation (10 s + preservative Thiomersal 5µg/) Egg-based manufacturing Manufactured in Germany, Canada,
The antigen and adjuvant components (enough for 10 s) must be mixed immediately prior to administration Adjuvant Antigen Withdraw 1 (0.5 ml) to administer (I.M.)
