SHENZHEN, China, November 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Hard to Treat Diseases (HTDS; http://www.htdsmedical.com) and its China subsidiary Mellow Hope announce that they have acquired a Registration Certificate for Mellow Hope's H1N1 Influenza A Vaccine from the government of Chile and the first vaccines will ship in a matter of weeks.

Chile's Institute of Public Health (ISP) (http://www.ispch.cl) issued the Registration Certificate for Mellow Hope's H1N1 Influenza A Vaccine (Virion Split). Mellow Hope's H1N1 vaccine is also the first such type of license in Chile. Mellow Hope is also the first China-based company to acquire the H1N1 vaccine approval from a foreign country. The management of HTDS sees this achievement as a leg up on the competition which gives Mellow Hope a significant advantage in South American markets for future expansions.

HTDS' CEO Terry Yuan said, We think this is a great start of our South American expansion which dates back to March of this year. We see this as a tremendous boost to our South American efforts to market our H1N1 vaccine in that region. The optimism of the Chilean negotiations provides us with a great advantage and helps us to promote the export of our H1N1 vaccine to other South American countries. This competitive edge should speed up our registration progress with other South American authorities, securing our place in these markets.

Hard to Treat Diseases (HTDS) operates two medical subsidiaries in Europe and Mainland China. HTDS is a parent company with operations in Eastern Europe Serbia-based pharmaceutical company Slavica Bio Chem Co. and in China Mellow Hope Inc.

The initial order and dollar sums will be shortly released; however, they are significant.
