refused on Thursday to suspend a seasonal influenza inoculation effort,despite growing calls for a halt,
including an appeal from a key group of doctors, after the deaths of at least 25 of those vaccinated.Health authorities
said they found no direct links between the deaths and the vaccines.At least 22 of the dead,
including a 17-year-old boy, were part of a campaign to inoculate 19 million teenagers and senior citizens for free,
