It has already been in us humans, the pigs raised concerns then.

I wonder why no one has released a vaccine for it yet.

There is a vaccine for chickens and turkeys for the bird flu. But poultry barns only use it when there are already outbreaks in their area, they don't consider the cost worth it most of the time. And no one is giving it to wild birds.
