 Next month is the month of the swine flu vaccination in Spain. Medical personnel are the first ones to receive the vaccine followed by pregnant women and chronically ill patients.

Varios pediatrics do concider it necessary that all minors receive the vaccine against this new virus. The head physician of the "Hospital Virgen del Camino de Pamplona" Enrique Bernaola, said that this is important regarding the fact that children are the ones that contaminate each other the most and the ones who pass on viruses the most. According to Bernaola, the vaccination is important to secure public health.

In Sweden they have already started using the new vaccine. Only after the vaccination of 1000 people there were 190 that suffered from strong side-effects such as high fever and trembling and had to go to hospital because of them. In Sweden they've used the vaccine Pandemrix.

Hello,

I will definitely not be allowing my daughter to be vacinated, so I hope a request form is handed out so I can reject it. I believe three people in Sweden died. The vacine is untested on humans, contains materials classed as bilogical weapons and is being used to combat a man-made variant of flu. Man-made resistance is always best. The vacine will probably be the main reason for the spread of it.

Thanks for raising the subject. It's nice to see someone in Ibiza discussing a current affair for once.

Like Hannah, I will not allow my child nor myself to be vaccinated, for the same reasons. Especially since this "Swine-flu" is not as bad as the regular flu.
Also, the pharmaceutical companies are in no way responsible for any adverse affects coming from the jab as you have to sign a form of consent!

My children will definitely NOT be getting this shot. Hannah and Marpessa above have given the reasons why. I do hope that we form part of the majority and that parents are able to look aside from the scaremongering and get information before they decide to vaccinate their children.
