We will all be offered vaccinations by Nov 15  but right now they are only available to people in high risk groups.

Well don't come to the UK then!
Our goverment hasn't got enough to go around ...unless you have an existing condition like asthma or a heart condition.

On the otherhand some of the side effects sound worse than the flu

(Hope I don't sound cynical there ... I don't have much faith in politicians)

My mother wouldn't let me have the polio vaccine until about the time I was 8 by then it was the new version.  I don't usually get flu vaccine and don't know if I will this time but I've told my 26 year old daughter to get hers today as she has asthma and if she gets it it will be bad.

 Was the polio vaccine  the one that left that little circle in your upper arm?
I think i had that in like grade 1 or something like that. I remember we use to have to eat a coloured sugar cube too, can't remember what that was for.

hiya NSgirl ... don't know whether it's different over in the UK but the polio vaccine was on the sugar cube

I remember standing in the queue for it and me best friend  and me thought the sugar cube was a treat for having bravely suffered the other injections ...  she didn't want hers and so I had two.
don't think it harmed me  Roll Eyes

Researchers draw connection between young people and H1N1

Young people are dying from the H1N1 virus and now scientists may know why. Turns out a strong immune system can be a bad thing.

Some experts believe deaths among otherwise healthy people could be because their bodies are creating an extreme immune response, essentially a case of the immune system turning on itself to fight the virus. Those who become desperately ill could be a victim of a particular trait of H1N1 and how it can stick to deep lung tissue and cause viral pneumonia.

In parts of B.C., like the Interior, the vaccine isn't being dispensed quite as quickly as some would like but doctors with the local health authority insists they're trying to get the roll-out going as fast as possible.

And here I've been boosting my immune system for the last two months to prevent the flu I'll probably end up in the hospital.

Don't believe everything in the media. If that were true they'd be handing out the shot to everyone that's healthy first and then children and pregnant women.
