English to Persian (Farsi): A vaccine for the H1N1 strain of swine flu
Source text - English
A vaccine for the H1N1 strain of swine flu became available in October 2009 as the country girded for a second wave of the pandemic that broke out across the country and much of the world in the spring. Despite shortages and confusion in the initial weeks of the vaccination effort, by December enough doses were available that officials expanded the effort beyond the high-risk groups initially targeted: pregnant women, people under 24 years old or caring for infants, people with high-risk medical conditions and health-care workers.

By the end of the year, over 85 million doses were available. By February 2010, there was so much unused swine flu vaccine in the world that rich nations, including the United States, were trying to get rid of their surpluses. But logistical difficulties meant that the world’s poorest countries — a few still facing the brunt of the pandemic — were receiving very little of it.

Medical experts looking back on the course of the epidemic -- although it may be far from over -- have credited luck and a series of rapid but conservative decisions by federal officials with limiting the virus's toll. In December, federal health officials estimated that 10,000 Americans had died since April of swine flu, far below the range of 30,000 to 90,000 predicted by a presidential panel.

The largest stumble seen in the program was the pace at which the vaccine was produced. The government predicted in early summer that it would have 160 million vaccine doses by late October. It ended up with less than 30 million, leading to a public outcry and Congressional investigations. But medical experts pointed to an unusually slow gestation time for the vaccine as the prime culprit, a factor beyond anyone's control.
Translation - Persian (Farsi)
در اکتبر سال 2009، واکسن نوعی ویروس آنفولانزای خوکی به نام H1N1 عرضه شد. این در حالی بود که کشور برای دومین موج همه گیر این ویروس آماده می شد که در سرتاسر کشور و بسیاری از کشور های دیگر در بهار شایع شده بود. علیرغم کمبودها و بی نظمی های هفته های اولیه واکسیناسیون، واکسن ها تا ماه دسامبر به میزان کافی موجود بود؛ به طوری که مسئولین عمل واکسیناسیون را فراتر از گروه های در معرض خطر انجام دادند که در اولویت برنامه قرار داشتند. این گروه ها عبارتند از: زنان باردار، افراد زیر 24 سال یا دارای نوزاد، افراد با شرایط پزشکی وخیم و کارگران مشمول خدمات درمانی.

تا اواخر سال، بیش از 80 میلیون واکسن موجود بود. تا فوریه 2010، تعداد واکسن های استفاده نشده در جهان چنان فراوان بود که کشورهای ثروتمند از جمله ایالات متحده در تلاش برای رهایی یافتن از واکسن های اضافی بودند. ولی مشکلات لجستیکی حاکی از آن است که فقیرترین کشورها- یعنی تعداد کمی که هنوز با خطر این ویروس مواجه هستند- تعداد معدودی از این واکسن را دریافت می کردند.

کارشناسان پزشکی با بررسی مجدد مسیر شیوع این ویروس- گرچه شاید کل آنرا در بر نگیرد- یک سری تصمیمات سریع ولی محتاطانه ای از طرف مقامات فدارل در راستای کاهش تلفات بیماری اتخاذ کردند. در ماه دسامبر، مقامات بهداشت فدرال برآورد کردند که از ماه آوریل، 10000 آمریکایی بر اثر آنفولانزای خوکی جان باختند. این رقم بسیار پایین تر از رقم 30000 تا 90000 هزاری بود که هیئت رئیسه پیش بینی کرده بود.

بزرگترین ضعف مشاهده شده در این برمانه واکسیناسیون در مرحله تولید واکسن بود. در اوایل تابستان، دولت پیش بینی کرده بود که در اواخر اکتبر 160 میلیون واکسن در دسترس خواهد داشت. این میزان به کمتر از 30 میلیون ختم شد که به اعتراض عموم و بررسی های کنگره ای منجر شد. گرچه متخصصین پزشکی مشکل اصلی را کندی در توزیع واکسن اعلام کردند که خارج از توان افراد بوده است.
