There’s no single vaccine for each and every other flu virus in the flu vaccine. Why should it be any different for h1n1?

The problem is that unless capacity is being increased, combined seasonal and H1N1 shots will mean fewer seasonal shots produced.

I know the seasonal flu shots are a cocktail of seasonal strains. The time I was hospitalized with complications was from a strain they didn't include in the vaccine that year.

That was the sickest I've even been in my life.

That said, I still want a choice. And unless they increase capacity, sounds like choice may be rendered moot.
