Expert fears swine flu vaccine will come too late.
The U of M's Michael Osterholm expects swine flu cases to be at its worst in the next six to eight weeks. Vaccines are due to arrive in Minnesota next month. Osterholm is worried that it won't be enough. State epidemiologist Ruth Lynfield says " People need to be more conscious that ever about not spreading illness." In that case don't be "Minnesota brave" and go to work or school. Minnesota has 265 swine flu cases, three ending in death.
