The topic of vaccines will be discussed in detail during the second semester of Biology, but since the news medias report on the Swine Flu (H1N1) every day I thought it would be a topic of interest to discuss on this blog. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) are working together with the World Health Organization (WHO) to oversee the creation of the Swine Flu Vaccine. As I write this post, Swine Flu Vaccine trials are being conducted in the United States. Without efficient safety studies and with disregard for for short-term and long-term adverse events that will arise from the global use of this vaccine, the vaccine will be pushed onto the market very shortly. My suggestion is to "Educate Before You Vaccinate." Here are a couple of websites with video links that will help with education part. Enjoy and if you wish, please leave comments.

The links you have listed are great! I am freaking out about this whole H1N1 thing. The media makes it seem so much worse than it truly is. You are right on about "educate before you vaccinate." My husband I and I have been doing a ton of research on the topic ourselves. My kids have been vaccinated up to two years, but we decided about a year ago we wouldn't vaccinate any longer. These websites simply have reconfirm our decision.
