The seasonal flu vaccine protects against three influenza viruses that research indicates will be most common during the upcoming season. The 2010-2011 flu vaccine will protect against 2009 H1N1, and two other influenza viruses (an H3N2 virus and an influenza B virus). The viruses in the vaccine change each year based on international surveillance and scientists’ estimations about which types and strains of viruses will circulate in a given year. About 2 weeks after vaccination, antibodies that provide protection against influenza virus infection develop in the body.
That just pisses me off. I deliberately did NOT get a H1N1 shot last year because I have a history of over-reacting to meds, etc.
Guess I won't be getting any flu shot this year.
How is it that the gubbmint can force this kind of crap on us?
