I would be very hesitant to get this vaccine after reading this article:

I will be grateful if someone answer the following questions:
i) Why h1n1 is considered an emergency if it killed approx. 2200 worldwide while seasonal flu kills approx half a million?. Being pandemic is only a measure of its geographical extension not its severity.
ii) How can a vaccine be safe if it has been developed in less than a year? What about side effects which may take years to appear?
iii) In the worst case scenario and the virus mutates to become a severe killer will these vaccines be effective?
iv) Is there an explanation why this disease affects the ages 25-45 and not the standard young or old ages??

Every year the same old hype.
I don't believe anyone can determine the safety of these shots after a few weeks, what about the long term effects?
This is a mild form of H1N1, why does the average person need it? Could it be driven by money???
If H1N1 mutates into a more virulent form, and it might, the shot will be completely ineffective.
There are time tested flu remedies. Go to the health food store, purchase homeopathic Influinzinum for a few dollars, and take as directed, before symptoms appear.
Take Vit D as well, check out mercola.com

The only time that I ever had the flu was when I took the 1976 swine flu shot. I have never been that sick in my life and hope I will never be again. Think I will pass on the swine flu shot this time.Hurry Up Offence works some of the time in football but I think it's the wrong thing to do when it comes to health issues.

"The only way to pick that up is after the fact, when a lot of people get vaccinated and good surveillance picks it up."
You mean when people DIE???
I'll isolate myself from people before I'll be a guinea pig for BigPharma and endanger my health by getting caught up in the politics of fear.

"And will figure out whether an adjuvant is called for." That's the clincher. Adjuvants are illegal in vaccines in the U.S. even since squalene was used in the swine flu vaccine of '76, and led to multiple injuries. If they are used we're in real trouble. And guess what the adjuvant is they plan to use in the current swine flu vaccine? Squalene.
