Bullish Fundamentals & Activity

[hogfan2]

SMED....More Americans have been vaccinated against seasonal flu this fall than ever before by this time of year, federal health officials said Friday.

Sixty million people have gotten the winter flu vaccine — probably because they’re paying more attention to flu warnings in general, thanks to swine flu. It’s an unprecedented number of seasonal flu shots for October; most usually aren’t given until later in the fall.

Part of it is due to supply: There are already 85 million doses of seasonal flu vaccine available, a much larger amount than usual for this early in the fall. Most years, roughly 100 million doses are used during the season.

Where do all those needles go...into sharps containers....

Sharps was awarded a $40 million contract in February this year by an agency of the U.S. government to provide its Sharps(R)MWMS(TM), a Medical Waste Management System designed to be an integral part of governmental and commercial emergency preparedness programs. Sharps(R)MWMS(TM) is a comprehensive medical waste solution which includes an array of services and products necessary to effectively collect, store and dispose of medical waste outside of the hospital and large healthcare facility setting and is capable of rapid deployment.
