Grub, that is my problem with the Swine Flu vaccine. Noone is actually being tested to confirm they actually have swine flu and not just seasonal flu! Since the symptoms for Swine flu are almost exactly the same as seasonal flu and noone is actually being tested, how can we definitely say what number of people actually have or have had Swine Flu? So it is hard to say if it is a pandemic or not. So I am not going to rush out and get what seems to be a dodgy vaccine when I am not completely sure I need it!! Especially when pregnant!!! I read somewhere that there is a chance that the average person has naturally developed immunity to Swine Flu through everyday contact and getting a vaccine would be unnecessary. I just hope that my contact with hundreds of kids when teaching (and their parents on parents evening) in the early days of Swine Flu has given me some immunity already. We are entering the winter flu season so the government were pushing the vaccine for pregnant women but seem to have calmed down now. Weird?? Alot of National Health Service staff came out and said they were refusing to have it when they were told they had to as they didn't trust it. So it seems in Australia and in the UK health professionals are not keen.
