    Canada has also purchased H1N1 vaccine that lacks a chemical booster called an adjuvant for use in pregnant women, because there is limited data on the safety of the advjuvant in pregnant women, Canada's chief public health officer, Dr. David Butler-Jones, said.


    And yet Dr Butler-Jones was quoted over the weekend as saying that in the absence of the non-adjuvant version pregnant women can take the regular version.

    No wonder the public is confused. I expect that there will be a relativity small number of Canadians who opt for the vaccine.

    I'll take my chances with the actual flu. I've avoided it so far and I'm in a hospital almost every day of the work week, plus a university.

    I will not be taking this especially after the BC study that shows yours chances of contracting the illness DOUBLE if you take the vaccination. Logically, that means the vaccination is actually infecting people. Yeah, the only vaccination I'm doing this year involves hot water, a dash of lemon, a bit of honey, and a lot of brandy. :mrgreen:

    That was an undocumented study the media got a hold of and ran with. Just the opposite may be true.


    Seasonal Flu Shot Some Help vs. Swine Flu?

    I like this line The seasonal flu vaccine either doubles or quarters your risk of H1N1, depending on if you're Canadian or Mexican
