It's coming. Flu season. Along with it comes that dreaded flu vaccine. Last year we heard all about how horrible the flu season was, how limited the vaccine supply was, but did you know that only 90 million of the available 162 million H1N1 doses were given out? Does sound like a limited vaccine to me. Did you know that H1N1 wasn't even as deadly as the normal seasonal flu? It just happens that it hit different generations and was therefore, more news worthy. It was all hype, as it always is.
And so this year's vaccines have begun to ship. This year's season vaccine does contain the H1N1 vaccine. Before getting that shot, you might want to read up on the side affects of that H1N1. They weren't at all pleasant.
You might also take note that at least one of the vaccines being used this year has been linked to high seizure rates in children. Apparently CSL Limited's Afluria is not being shipped to the US, but you never know. Seizures are something no parent ever wants to experience.
