Swine Flu
Sharmin:
Yikes,
I was going to start phoning around to get our family the shots - now I am reluctant... My son's pediatrician and the docs in Oakland encouraged us to get the flu shot and the H1N1 shot, but I don't want to take any unnecessary risks with the kids ??? ???

I know tihis sounds selfish, but I want to see the vaccine tested on someone else before I take it. My doctor told me in June that he wants to give me the shots. I don't want to panic anyone but we should all push for thorough testing before this is widely used.

I am now very reluctant about any vaccinations after reading the posts by Bigg that where disscussing the presence of mercurey (thimerosal) in vaccines and how these are wide spread in the USA, Canda and exported to developing countries except some of the Eurepean countries and Japan that by law prevent usage of such vaccines. As Andy said, this thimerasol is the responsible for triggering Austism

Anyway it seems that there will be no long terms study for the side effect of the swine flu vaccine if it will be available in such short time

Exactly Manal,
no long term study for the side effects, the drug companies are in a hurry to provide this vaccine in the market. Consequently they do not have adequate time to cope with the side effects and the question that arises is: which one is more dangerous for our health, the swine flu or the vaccine itself?
I am very sceptical about the swine flu vaccine. I have only had the vaccine for the lungs (is "silicosis" the medical term?) which helps against swine flu and I am going to have the usual annual flu vaccine. For the rest we'll see.

All the schools have been closed down for one week. Let us hope this reduces the spread of the flu and also that by next week, the climate changes, that is summer sets in for good. There is also the threat of Chikungunia since Reunion island which is very near has it. If only that flu would stop, Chikungunia is manageable because it comes from mosquitoes and we managed that successfully a few years ago. but the two together will be disastrous.
Take care
