Amid an increase in swine flu cases in Rajasthan's Udaipur district, authorities today complained of shortage of vaccines.

"The health department has asked for 5000 vaccines from the directorate but was informed that the vaccines are not available right now," chief medical health officer BL Mishra said.

Even last year, only 500 vaccines were provided against a demand for 5000, he said.

The vaccines available in the market are very expensive. The nasal spray vaccine which is more in demand is also not easily available, the official said.

The available vaccines have an expiry date of August 31. The department has no supply of spray vaccine. The injectable and nasal spray vaccines are sold at a price between Rs200 to Rs800, he said.

Meanwhile, three more persons tested positive for the H1N1 virus taking the total count of laboratory confirmed cases in the district this year to 32. Two persons have died of the virus.
