11. What problems with the 1976 swine flu vaccine are you concerned about?
Edited on Mon Nov-09-09 07:28 PM by salvorhardin
The increase in GBS cases? That was largely overblown by the media I think as the increase was roughly only 1 additional case per 100,000 people over the baseline. That seems like a pretty minimal risk considering only one to two people per 100,000 contract GBS each year normally. And of course, as the article notes, this vaccine is not that vaccine.

And just for the record, I don't think you're a vaccination denialist. Mercola on the other hand, is the worst sort of liar.
