184674 tn?1360860493 com September 16, 2009 According to a recent New York Times article, more than three million doses of swine flu vaccine will be available in the U.S. by this week.

Avatar f tn I'm one of the lucky ones that has both diabetes and Crohn's. In fact, I got diabetes not from Crohn's but from the steriods (prednisone) I was put on.

220090 tn?1379167187 The article says that "in general", telaprevir is better. I cannot tell from the article if that is an opinion of the author, of if the author is relying on some analysis that goes unmentioned in the article.
