Will You Get the A(H1N1) Vaccine?

Assuming the A(H1N1) vaccine is available in your area soon, will you get jabbed?

I read somewhere some of these vaccines are actually cultured viruses themselves so can cause different side effects in different people.

I guess since they already have it and the hospitals are stockpiling it there's no immediate need to rush out to get this anymore. The Hospitals will sell some to the general public to those that want it. but they will also hold back and keep in reserve a batch to treat real genuine cases with, so it's not like this is going to run out anytime soon.

The technique for producing the A(H1N1) vaccine is the same that is used to produce the seasonal flu vaccine.

Sanofi Pasteur is one of the leading trustworthy vaccine producers and they have an A(H1N1) vaccine. I would not hesitate to use Sanofi Pasteur products, personally.

Done....

So, you already had H1N1?!! When? How long ago? Was it officially "determined" in the lab?

Was a few months back, and no I didn't report it, just hid in my room with plenty of fluids and panadol. I certainly can't be certain but it was a rapid onset (unusual for me - I generally feel it coming for ages) and I'd been exposed to a very likely bunch of cases for 1 week continuously around 2 weeks prior.

So I'm calling it 'probably'
