H1N1 vaccine demand, low forward P/E, consistent earnings and generous dividend. Next earnings report is 7/30/09

I like the MedImmune acquisition but their balance sheet looks like crap- 5billion in cash vs 15billion in debt, plus negative earnings and revenue. Think it will take some time before the MedImmune acquisition starts to pay off

Showed up on a screen for solid 5 year growth with low debt, cash on hand and still at attractive P/E ratios.
