Tomorrow, February 4th, 2009 the HHS will host a webcast of the Vaccine Safety Working Group Meeting.
It is apparently scheduled to run roughly 4+ hours, which may make it difficult for some to attend.
In any event, I plan to catch as much of it as I can. Here is the information.
The National Vaccine Advisory Committee (NVAC)
Webcast of February 4, 2009 Vaccine Safety Working Group Meeting
