This one containes squalene, mercury, and thermisol.
You can do a search on those ingredients if you’d like. I know I wouldn’t get it.
It looks like some adverse effects are starting to show up from the vaccine:
‘A Participant in the H1N1 vaccine trials has an adverse reaction and coughs up blood.’

According to information I just read this week from Dr. Sears, author of “The Vaccine Book - Making The Right Decisions For Your Child” this vaccine is the same as any other seasonal flu vaccine. The only difference is the virus contained.
My own doctor told me the same. If they would have had time to include the swine flu virus in this year’s seasonal flu shot they would have. I still have concerns and I don’t fault anyone for having concerns as well. I always get a yearly flu shot and it has kept me influenza free for years. My concern is the short amount of time in which this vaccine was developed and tested and the fact that with young children who are receiving not only their regular vaccines, 4 flu shots within a short amount of time would be required if they are receiving both the H1N1 and the regular seasonal flu vaccine. Dr. Sears talks about that as well.
My children follow Dr. Sear’s recommendations to schedule vaccines for their own children. If you would like to check out what he has to say about the vaccines I will provide a link here to the site my daughter sent me too. I was concerned about the vaccines for the grandchildren. I still am but I’m also worried about them contracting any influenza as they are all very young, two of them under a year old.
My children follow Dr. Sears recommendations because he tends to be more conservative and recommends spacing out vaccines. We have a history of auto-immune disease in our family so we naturally are concerned about over-doing things.
The different vaccines are all listed on the site and what is contained in them so you are getting valid information. Maybe it will be helpful. Or not. Your choice.

I do believe that if you choose to work in a health care facility you have to follow the guidelines and requirements that they set to protect their patients. If you are not comfortable with that you should not seek employment at that facility. Not all of them have those requirements.
I would be willing to be that every nurse in that facility has been at least required to have a hepatitis vaccine. The reasons for requiring vaccines for healthcare workers is pretty obvious.
