The United States and several other countries have decided to donate one-tenth of their future H1N1 pandemic influenza A vaccine supplies to developing countries. US Permanent Representative to the UN Susan Rice announced this in a conversation with reporters.

"Today, President Obama announced that the United States is prepared to share 10% of its H1N1 flu vaccine supply with developing countries through the World Health Organization. As vaccine supplies accumulate, they will be distributed through the WHO to countries that lack direct access," said Susan Rice.

Along with the United States, Australia, Brazil, Great Britain, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, France, and Switzerland have expressed their willingness to share the vaccine.
