The lack of knowledge on display is staggering, as usual.

Heres the one on one.
- You are really doing the public a favor. It's a two shot deal, it's not wrapped up with the normal flu shot. That would be in addition to the normal flu shot. So, to get your seasonal protection your are looking at 3 shots this year.
- Elderly (60 over) are some what protected. Most Swine flu cases are for previous generations, hinting that this bug has surfaced prior.
- It's the flu, the flu kills on average about 3,600 people a year. The Swine flu is no different with the exception that it's more of a global bug and not focused in regions.
- Are you still prone to the flu and cold? Yes, flu shots protect from what is to be the forecasted strains for the flu season specifically influenza types. Can the flu strain mutate and offer you no protection? Absolutely.Conclusion, if you hate having the flu, have asthma or any other health related illness, work with the general public, or just really paranoid ... get it.
Otherwise, stay healthy, take your vitamins, wash your hands often, and I mean really often, cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze. That's really about it.

There are concerns that there could be a repeat of what became known as the ‘1976 debacle’ in the US, where a swine flu vaccine killed 25 people – more than the virus itself.
The result:
* More people died from the vaccination than from swine flu.
* 500 cases of GBS were detected.
* The vaccine may have increased the risk of contracting GBS
by eight times.
* The vaccine was withdrawn after just ten weeks when the link with GBS became clear.
* The US Government was forced to pay out millions of dollars to those affected.A mass vaccination was given the go-ahead by President Gerald Ford because scientists believed that the swine flu strain was similar to the one responsible for the 1918-19 pandemic, which killed half a million Americans and 20million people worldwide.
Within days, symptoms of GBS were reported among those who had been immunised and 25 people died from respiratory failure after severe paralysis. One in 80,000 people came down with the condition. In contrast, just one person died of swine flu.
More than 40million Americans had received the vaccine by the time the programme was stopped after ten weeks. The US Government paid out millions of dollars in compensation to those affected.
The swine flu virus in the new vaccine is a slightly different strain from the 1976 virus, but the possibility of an increased incidence of GBS remains a concern.

Hell No! Have you seen the news floating around that the vaccine creators do not want to take it themselves after reviewing the test trials.
Lets consider the stats:
Canada
Cases: 7983 Deaths: 25USA
Cases: 33902 Deaths: 970UK
Cases: 7447 Deaths: 3Its not as deadly as they say and most of those who died were already compromised with something else.

There is a lot of horse shit coming from the media in regards to Swine flu. They twist and turn facts and leave out some critical important information. It's a freak show circus act.
- Mimio0
Yes and yes for my 1-year old.
- I highly encourage you do some research on the vaccine, especially in regards to your 1 year old. It can't hurt right?designbot
- We have a trusted pediatrician for that.Mimio
- You have more faith than I do, sirdesignbot
- Doesn't require faith at all. My kids is on a very well monitored and safe vaccine schedule.Mimio
- I would argue there is no such thing as a "safe vaccine schedule" check out a book title "Shot in the Dark" it may change your mind.designbot
- your mind.designbot
- doctors don't know shit.lambsy
- Injecting mercury into the body is never safe. There is always some risk, however small.ETM
- they dont fucking use it. holy hell what's with the anti science in here?spifflink
- They don't use what? Mercury? Are you kidding? Its not a secret FFS. Look it up.ETM

- It's disturbing that people talk up mercury use when it's been obsolete for years.Mimio
