Butler-Jones disclosed the information in Ottawa during a news conference at which federal health officials revealed flu activity appears to be levelling off. All but 15,000 doses of the vaccine had been used by the time the halt-use order was issued, said Dr. Danielle Grondin, assistant deputy minister of the public health agency. But confirmed cases of anaphylaxis have been seen with other batches as well. And some possible cases may still be under investigation.Helen Branswell, Medical Reporter, Canadian Press
