I perosnally have never had any jags/shots. except the compulsory vitiman K shot, which all newborns have to get over here in britian. Or they definitally had to get it when i was born anywayz.

except for that one, i have had no more.

my parents didnt see the point in the health of healthy children . -

i was offered this shot, and the shot for cervical cancer, the schools try and drum it into u that if u dont get it ur gonna die. its a load of rubbish.

My piano teachers husband died of a flu jag.

Yes, I agree and it doesn't help to convince me when the leaders of our world even dare to suggest decreasing the world population. What if this is their way of killing our babies and children??

I eat oranges, eggs, drink milk and get some sun whenever I can (Vitamin D). Works like a charm. I hardly get sick now.

Who knows what they put in those flu shots. That is probably why everyone is dying of cancer all the drugs and stuff that they keep throwing in their body.

If they have a headack they pop a pill

If they get depressed they pop a pill

If the .. well you get the picture they pop pills for almost every problem.

I've had both H1N1, and the shot.

With H1N1, I had a 102-degree fever for three days, was confused and disoriented, got taken to the ER by a concerned buddy after I couldn't stand up or walk (that's where I was diagnosed), had auditory and visual hallucinations from the high fever, lost 10-ish pounds due to two days of vomiting and five days of terrible diarrhea. My doctor said I was lucky that I was in such good shape or it could have been a lot worse for me. I was scared for a couple days after most of the symptoms wore off because I still had a strong mental fog and was worried I had gotten brain damage from the prolonged, high fever. Yeah, you can actually get BRAIN DAMAGE from fevers like that. I was on medication most of the time as well, and still think I got hit pretty bad. In the end, I know it was only through the grace of God that I got through it OK.

What would have happened if God hadn't intervened, I hadn't been put on strong meds after the ER trip, hadn't gotten two rounds of the flu vaccine earlier (which is supposed to help), hadn't been in good physical shape, or if I had had some kind of pre-existing condition? Yeah, I think I could have easily been toast like the one-THOUSAND nine-hundred and eleven other people who've died so far, as reported by the CDC.

After I recovered, the Army made me get the H1N1 vaccine as well, before I could deploy. Go go gadget Army thinking. With the shot, I just got a prick in the arm, and no other symptoms. I got the military one, which I think might have been a weakened virus vaccine, because everyone else in my group (four others) got a mild flu that lasted for a day or two.

So, you pick. Possibility of a mild flu for a day or two (if you get a vaccine like the Army one), or possible BRAIN DAMAGE and DEATH.

As far as the mercury and nerve-disease stuff goes, that's nonsense. There have been no Guillain-Barre cases documented from all the people who've been vaccinated so far. As for the mercury, the vaccines that we were given contain 25 micrograms of thiomeral, a mercury compound, not elemental mercury. Big difference. Even if it were elemental mercury, you consume more than that when you eat a tuna-fish sandwich. For real, check it out.

C'mon people. If you're basing life and death decisions for you and your children off of YouTube videos rather than off doctors and scientists who spent their whole lives being educated and who take the vaccines themselves, then you've got issues.

May God bring more common sense into this room and protect your children and your loved ones,

"WASHINGTON (Reuters) - H1N1 swine flu killed an estimated 3,900 Americans from April to October, including more than 500 children, U.S. health officials said on Thursday."

http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2009/11/12/news/news-us-flu-usa.html
New York Times, quoting Center for Disease Control (the government's disease-tracking organziation) statistics. New figures are even higher than the ones I found earlier. Slightly more reliable than some random person's answer on Chacha.

God bless you,

I was never one to question vaccines untill this year. After a regular vaccine this last spring I developed some type of autoimune disorder. Drs say there is no connection but I have to wonder about the timing.
I do know that when ever my dentist has to remove an old filling that has mercury I become ill for several weeks. He no longer uses mercury fillings to replace. I never believed in the connection before but now I really have begun to wonder.
God bless, pickles

H1N1 swine flu killed an estimated 3,900 Americans from April to October, including more than 500 children, U.S. health officials said on Thursday.
Better data than was previously available shows the flu pandemic has infected an estimated 22 million Americans and put 98,000 in the hospital, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.
Children account for 8 million of the infected, 36,000 of those hospitalized and 540 deaths.


In an average flu season, about 36,000 Americans die and 200,000 are hospitalized with 90 percent of deaths and hospitalizations among people over 65.


The regular flu has killed MORE people than the swine flu.

I've had the regular flu shot twice. Once it was while I had a very serious case of the flu and I was better within a day of having the shot and had no negative effects at all. H1N1 has been going around my school and some nurses are coming to give the vaccine to whoever wants it in a couple weeks; I havent made up my mind if im going to get it yet.

I got the shot...and I'm alive-- wow, crazy huh?! LOLzzz...maybe people shouldn't be getting their healthcare info from youtube videos...just a thought...
that's an invalid argument, you may be alive, yet it doesn't mean it won't have adverse effects on you at some point in life.

I work for a MD.
Trust me, it would be in your best interest to get the vaccine.
It is a LIVE but weakened variation of the virus.
You may experience some cold like symptoms but they are well worth it.
You DO NOT want to get sick this coming year.
The virus is said to be coming worse than ever.
Frequent hand washing and staying away from sick people are your best bet.

Please get immunized.
