Message: <blockquote data-quote="1911user" data-source="post: 1340607" data-attributes="member: 57493">I had the normal flu shot last year and most years previous.  I had serious concerns about the H1N1 vaccine last year and chose not to take the vaccine for it.  This year, they don't give you a choice and don't advertise the fact that the H1N1 is part of the "normal" flu shot.  I researched enough info last year that I was not comfortable taking the H1N1 vaccine shot.  My understanding is that they are using the same vaccine (for H1N1 this year).  So, I choose not to get a flu shot this year and have warned extended family against it as well.  I suggest everyone do their own research about the safety of the H1N1 vaccine and make an educated choice for their family (extended or not).</blockquote>
