Malaysia has the vaccine for swine flu which can be used to stop the spread of the disease to this country.
Veterinary Services director-general Datuk Dr Abd Aziz Jamaluddin said the H1N1 vaccine should be injected into pigs as a preventive measure following reports of 81 people killed by the swine flu in Mexico.
He told Bernama that the department was only waiting for the directive from the Health Ministry to carry out vaccination on the livestock.
He believed that the H1N1 vaccine was also used by pig farms in other countries as a preventive measure against swine flu.
Dr Abd Aziz also disclosed that Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai had issued a directive to all State Veterinary Services directors to monitor pig farms in their respective states as a precaution and to report on any sign of swine flu infection.
