Swine Flu


So you know of the most recent pandemic to hit the United States. and half the world. is Swine Flu. We also know that our government has given out these vaccines to help prevent the spread of the infection. The question of the hour is though, to take, or not to take the vaccine? Youtube, has a video published of a woman that had an extremely rare genetic disorder, that causes her multiple handicaps after having taken the swine flu vaccine. Well, my advice is to take the vaccine. I went myself last Tuesday to get the vaccine. It turns out theres actually two forms of the vaccine. Theres a shot, which has a dead virus in it, but also takes longer for you to become immune; and then there's the live version, the nasal spray, that takes less time for you to become immune. I choose the shot version, one I dont like things being stuck up my nose. The shot wasnt painful, short prick and then its over. I encourage everyone to get the vaccine, and dont be discouraged by a rare case.
