Update from WHO is that they have a vaccine now. I don't know how good it is but couuntries are stockpiling it up now.

If could cite a source I'd appreciate it. Maybe post it on the thread I linked to above, everyone there would like to see it too.

WHO does NOT have a vaccine that is effective against the H5N1 strain that transmits from human-to-human. Period. Such a vaccine will not be made until 6 months after such a strain emerges, which it has not yet done. And even then, there won't be enough to vaccinate very many people.

The vaccine is a guess estimate of what might work. They don't know if it will. The virus hasn't spread to people yet.
