[QUOTE="jal, post: 303988, member: 3477"] The H1N1 vaccine is supposed to be available next month (last I heard). I haven't seen anything with-regards to it's effectiveness. I imagine it will be along the lines of the regular flu shot, you still can contact the flu, but have a milder case than with-o the shot. Our pediatrician's office said to contact them this week regarding clinics. husband and my GP said end of the month for scheduling the shot. husband and I get our flu shots every year since he came home 9 years ago with it and gave it to me. We were both out of work for a week. Very ill. I have contacted the flu 2x in my life. Once at the age of 3 (and I remember it) and 9 yrs ago thanks to husband. difficult child gets a flu shot every year as he had RSV as an infant and was relegated to the high risk catagory. Luckily, illness is highly rare for difficult child since he contacted everything under the sun when he was an infant/toddler in daycare. Knock on wood, but he hasn't had a cold in over a year and I can't recall the last time he was sick with-fever, maybe 4+ years ago...(I know I just jinxed myself). [/QUOTE]
