Actually you did not give all the facts by posting that. As Perderabo mentioned it is not recommended for "older" people ( over 50 ) to take the nasal spray. While it is not a full strength form of the virus, it is possible for the nasal spray to trigger a full immune response in a person who takes it and it is possible for re-transmission to occur.
So far with the H1N1 vaccine people infected by taking the vaccine have only been known to be vectors for the weakened form where re-transmission occurs, however this is control data since it is not possible to have a control study in a mass population and as such has quite a high margin of error.

I've already had it and if not, my answer would have been no I would not be getting the vaccine.
To preempt the question, yes lab tests did confirm.
For me it was not really that sever. I only had 2 days of feeling really bad and about another 8 or 10 days to recover fully.
