Good news on H1N1 Vaccine Front-No adjuvant

I've been wondering what the fast-track approval of H1N1 vaccines would mean for vaccine safety. Today, Andrew Pollack's article in the NY Times, "Benefit and Doubt in Vaccine Addititve," assured me that USA isn't planning to approve any vaccines with adjuvants this go-round. That means the safety concerns associated with fast-tracking the approval aren't an issue. Only question now is whether the vaccine will arrive before the flu itself does.
