Pregnant women who listened to their doctors and took the H1N1 flu shot are now showing up on the Internet. What are they saying? They are reporting that within 1-4 days they have had miscarriages.

Can't we just have some truth? I think Americans have the right to know everything about this vaccine.

David Icke warned on his website that it is NOT the virus that will hurt you, it is the VACCINE! On some stuff he is out there, on this he is spot on.

Nah, that would take the sick fun of it from people who KNOW that it kills you. The heck with the virus, it's the VACCINE that will kill you. Plus you frighten people into killing themselves. Don’t you see the sick beauty of it?

Obama is evil.

The percentage of women miscarrying after receiving the H1N1 vaccine is exactly the same as those miscarrying who do not have the vaccine. Conclusion—they would have miscarried anyway.

My doc told me that the H1N1 vaccine is exactly the same as the seasonal flu vaccine, except for it is for a different virus. Pregnant women have been receiving the seasonal flu vaccine for decades and it has never been linked to miscarriage. She said that getting the H1N1 vaccine posed less risk to the baby than coming down with a serious case of the flu does. It is a personal decision and important the people have factual information.

I think he found a vaccine to cause miscarriages.

At least 20% of known pregnancies are miscarried. Half of those are due to genetic anomalies. There are more than one million women in their first trimester now (about 4.3 M births a year, some early pregnancies miscarried or aborted.)

That means roughly 20,000 are going to miscarry this coming week, and a sizeable number of those will recently have had the flu vaccine.

Show us a significant study of miscarriage rates by vaccination status between matched women. If there is a difference there, then the medical advice for pregnant women to be vaccinated should be reconsidered.

The most natural thing in the world for a woman who has just lost her baby is to look for reasons why so that she can have some control and prevent it in the future. And undeserved guilt, looking at her own actions - “If only I hadn’t - I should have - I was nervous about it but I did it anyway” is very common.

So you will have thousands of women who have this sad experience of losing a baby after a vaccine...but that in itself does not prove the vaccine is dangerous.

I’ve been in that place myself, with a different vaccine. It took a long time to let that go.

This flu is not as deadly as it was first being reported, so why should a pregnant woman take a chance with a shot that hasn’t been fully tested?

There were reports (anecdotes) that pregnant women were a disproportionate number of the very serious cases. A pregnant woman deathly ill is a very dramatic, attention-drawing story. Again, a proper study is needed. You may well be right.

The baby boy was 24 weeks and perfect, they had NO understanding WHY she suddenly aborted. She had the shot just a week or so before.

I've posted this article already, but the anti-vaccine zealots don't care much about facts if the facts get in the way of hyperbole.

Hey..you may be right. But do you really think a drug company or anyone is going to jump up and say that there IS a correlation?

When there’s no correlation, I don’t expect them to report that there is a correlation.

Do you have a reference for your claim that the women miscarrying after getting the H1N1 vaccine is exactly the same as those miscarrying who do not have the vaccine?

I have been trying to find the results of the clinincal trials run on the H1N1 vaccine and been unsuccessful. Especially, I am interested on your data about trials testing the vaccine on pregnant women. I tend to lean heavily on the reports from the ground (women reporting miscarriages soon after the shot) that government generated platitudes not backed by medical research.

Also, will you please ask your doctor why the drug companies who make the regular vaccine and who accept libility for that the vaccine’s safety in humans, demanded an exemption from libility for the H1N1 vaccine if they are “exactly the same”?
Thanks.
