    Were I to lose control of my fingers, it would be attributable to a psychogenic meltdown on my part- not the vaccine.

    Like that back-asswards cheerleader- had absolutely nothing to do with the shot being bad. Had everything to do with paranoia about the shot and subsequently, psychosomatic symptoms. That, unsurprisingly, went away.
    Secondary effects of certain adjuvants include Guillain-Barre'. That's a simple fact. I don't anything about the girl walking backwards, but the effects of Guillain-Barre can be temporary.

    Where does your confidence come from, balli? No vaccine is 100% safe. There's always a risk, howbeit vanishingly small.

    There are no adjuvants in the American vaccine.

    And while yeah it's not 100% iron-clad safe, it is far safer than taking a chance with a novel flu that's killing somewhere between .1% & .5% of the infected in my age demographic. Throw in my marijuana lungs and increasingly misanthropic lifestyle and I'd guess my chances of dying are even greater than that.

    So yeah comparatively, even given the .0000001% chance something goes wrong, I feel like the vaccine is absolutely nothing to be concerned about.

    It doesn't help that almost every single anti-vaccine website I've seen has had links to UFO, Holocaust Denial and/or NWO stories.

    Primarily? The CDC. http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/vaccinati..._safety_qa.htm

    As well as the FDA and all sorts of independant MD's who've had chance to comment on the issue.

    There is a preservative in some of the vaccine, when necessary. No adjuvants.

    Thanks Balli, that's good to know, and shame on all of us for not checking with the CDC...

    No. According to current federal plans, only unadjuvanted vaccines will be used in the United States during the 2009 flu season. This includes all of the 2009 H1N1 and seasonal influenza vaccines that will be available for children and adults in both the injectable and nasal spray formulations. None of these influenza vaccines will contain adjuvants.

    2009 H1N1 vaccines with adjuvants are being studied to determine if they are safe and effective. Experts will review these data when they are available. There is no plan at this time to recommend a 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine with an adjuvant.

    Really?

    Can you source that by chance?

    Vaccines do not cause side effects unless they have something else in them. The worse a clean vaccine can do is give you what it's attempting to protect you against.

    Yea, I saw that after posting. That cannot be true, or the girl wouldn't have had those side effects. maybe they are slipping them in, mislabling them, or something.

    Uh, the girl didn't have Guillain-Barre. For lack of a better word, she was crazy. I'm not sure whether it was a psychologist or a neurologist who was working with her, but it may as well have been the former.

    And who is the 'they' that is out to taint the vaccine with squalene? And for what purpose? And why would such a scenario have any credibility at all? Ostensibly, more than the Centers for Disease Control does?

    A mix of solid facts, half truths, false enigmas and urban legend.
