Reminds of the H1N1 scare. Many including me got the shot. For me it pained for two days with pain killers swallowed. Number of my friends did not bother to take the shot (they never took any flue shot as I know). They are doing just fine. The hype that was created as if people would fall on the street due to H1N1 if the shots were not taken. I was told that Poland did not allow the vaccine to be used as they were not sure of the testing done. In the end the manufacturer of the vaccine made very good money.

There is the other side too, those who were down with the flu were very sick.

Vaccines are like Insurance Policy. You identify the risk & you try to Mitigate. There are companies/people to make use of this fear factor in every human.

Now, Indian Medical Tourism sector should make use of this report to clean its house. Industry didnt pay to carry out the report, so no point in fighting. It could be biased report but I dont think anyone would totally deny.

Superbug will find it hard to survive due to high pollution in India and try to find a way to immigrate to Canada(No waiting period).
Once it enters in Canada (Soon it will because we have so many dedicated people who will bring it here), it can live healthy life and at least our sleeping doctors(There are only few who can be counted on fingers) in Canada will get a chance to upgrade their skills.

This new http://personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/2010/09/14/superbug-india-infect-u-s/" target="_blank">superbug turned up in hospitals in Massachusetts, California and Illinois. It is believed that the superbug have originated in India where all three had recently spent time in India for cheap plastic surgery. Now scientists are concerned that NDM-1 may be a worldwide threat considering the American superbug victims weren’t health related tourists at all.
