Tamiflu - a waste of government money?

World Business Report

Available for over a year

A new report claims the swine flu drug Tamiflu, is no more effective than paracetamol. We speak to one of the authors of the study and a scientist from the company that makes it. Also in the programme: day three of the world’s biggest election. And a closer look at apps for health and fitness – how effective are they and do they need to be regulated?
