As I have mentioned before, there HAVE been Flu vaccines that were "rushed to production", like this one was, that have had an unacceptably high rate of SERIOUS side effects that I am choosing to forgo the H1N1 vaccine (which is not even available here yet...).
I'm not suggesting (and actively laugh at) the idea that there is some nefarious purpose behind the H1N1 vaccine.
I just prefer to have vaccines that have been tested for more than a few hours before they're run off by the tens of millions and injected in the general public.
Actually, even if it were available today, it wouldn't do me any good..
I've got a degree and a half of fever, and sore throat... so I'm staying home from work until 24 hours after the fever breaks - as the CDC recommends.
Time to catch up on some reading, and email work that I won't be coming in tomorrow.
