Nope and have no real intrest in it either.

My G.P. (Doctor) reckons my immune system probably isn't conducive to successful administration of a live-virus vaccine.

In other words, leave it for now. Suits me.

No

No intentions of getting either the regular seasonal Flu vaccine nor the H1N1 vaccine.

Same here, although when they finally get around to offering it to the group I'm in ("high-risk", but not a child, not a pregnant woman, and not someone who works with children), I will get one.

Well I was going to go get the vaccine yesterday, but I didn't plan for the long lines and got there after the clinic had accepted all the people for that day. I returned today; I got in line at 11:15 and got out of there 4 hours later.

They're not doing the vaccine in the schools here, which I find odd... The elementary school at the end of the street here already has three cases, and the junior high one (these are things I heard while I was in line, perhaps just gossip).

Apparently in the next province over (NB), there are shortages of the vaccine and they refused today to give it to anyone but pregnant women and small children.

Well, I got the vaccine in time. They've changed it in NS as well that only high-risk people can get it for now.

Is the vaccine in Canada the same vaccine as the USA?

Is it injected or that weakened virus nasal spray?

Fangtasia 10-31-2009 07:24 PM

I'll be getting it, i am in a high risk job.

Tis free, so why not *L*

Neige 10-31-2009 08:49 PM

I'm not sure what it is in the States, but here it's injected.

Lilith 10-31-2009 09:28 PM

It is available in 3 ways.

Fangtasia 10-31-2009 09:33 PM

Really?? Awesome, my youngest is absolutely blindly terrified of needles, that will give him an option of having it also.....i'll need to look into that at my docs.

Oldfart 10-31-2009 09:47 PM

I don't think we get an option here in the benighted colonies. It's the needle or nuffin.

Fangtasia 10-31-2009 09:49 PM

Well i can only ask OF, they may be able to access it for him to be able to have it

Oldfart 11-01-2009 04:22 AM

You can only ask.
