Flu Vaccine

Would you inject yourself with a temporary partially effective malaria vaccine if I offered it for 'free'?

The risks of contracting either disease in the UK appears equal

Yes, but that's going to be because there's an ongoing annual vaccination programme for influenza in the UK. There's no equivalent vaccination programme for malaria in the UK.

Sure it doesn't cover everyone in the UK but if you wanted to make things equal and you stopped the UK influenza vaccination programme then a LOT more people in the UK would die from influenza compared to malaria.

Your question was hypothetical, if thee gov makes that decision I'd go with it as they'd have vetted thee risks.

Your track record on this sort of argument isn't particularly good, though, is it. Better duck out again, sweet tits, just like you did in the other thread.

Eh? You didn't read that link, did you?

But research has since found the chances of developing the condition after having a vaccination are extremely small.

For example, a study into the vaccine used during the 2009 swine flu outbreak found that for every million people who had the vaccination, there were fewer than 2 extra cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome.

And evidence suggests that you are far more likely to get Guillain-Barré syndrome from an infection, such as the flu, than the vaccine designed to prevent the infection, such as the flu jab.

You're right, you're a waste of oxygen. Onto the ignore list.

In my defence, you usually have to utter the magic phrase 3 times for one to appear - sorry about that...
