No, all manufacturers have had problems, Glaxo-Smith Kline have the longest delay of up to a month on top of original delivery date!  Other companies only have a week or two delay.  Trust us to get the slowest company.

we have been told to expect our vaccines in November as the Gp's will be
receiving them first.
We have had this confirmed by Glaxo-Smith Kline. Are they the only
manufacturers with problems?

There has been a problem with several manufacturers.  After a prompt from
us our pharmacy looked around  for other suppliers, as they'd been told the
vaccine wouldn't be delivered until the end October/early November. They
were able to source different supplies and it will arrive in time to start
the campaign on 10th October.

I've heard from PCT flu co-ordinators that GP's are experiencing
difficulties and are informing patients of delays - my own surgery quoted
a "...delay in delivery to the manufacturer of one of the three viral seed
strains chosen by the World Health Organisation, our clinics will now
commence 22nd October..."
