I haven’t heard of any school age healthy children who have succumbed because of the H1N1. I have only heard of already compromised people having serious issues. We’re passing on the vaccine for now.

Ooooh, forgot the doctah was reading! Good to have a “second opinion” – thanks! And the more I think about it, the more I think I’m going to vote thumbs down on both seasonal and H1N1 vaccines . . . checkup is tomorrow so we’ll see what “the other doctor” has to say on the subject!

We’re not doing the H1N1 vaccine. Unless the disease gets far worse, and the vaccine doesn’t have any apparent effects. We’re going to take Vitamin D. (Kids had flu for the past two years and no vaccine, however they did get the strains not covered by the vaccine either year.)

Yes to handwashing. No to being overly freaked out about the swine flu.
