Earlier this year, members of the public health community in Canada were buzzing about a series of studies in three Canadian provinces that seem to show people who got a seasonal flu shot last year were twice as likely to come down with the swine flu as those who didn’t. Known as “the Canadian problem” by some scientists, word of the data spread through Canada and worldwide.

The World Health Organization (WHO) plans to go through the data to see if it is correct or flawed before it deters people from getting a seasonal flu shot. ...

Barbara Loe Fisher of the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) has urged that federal officials monitor the vaccination history of children who are sickened or die from swine flu to investigate the impact our increasing schedule of childhood vaccines has on chronic illness such as allergies and susceptibility to adverse effects from the flu vaccine. To date, no one is gathering that information.

According to a report in the British medical journal, The Lancet, the monitoring is important to separate normal disease rates from those caused by vaccines - such as 2,500 miscarriages that occur daily in the U.S. and 3,000 heart attacks. No one really knows if they coincide with vaccinations.
