Some areas are doing under 5s, in some areas they still have not finished the "at risk" groups, and that does not even cover the fact that at risk patients, like my son, who take the "wrong type of inhaler", and are not deemed to be asthmatic, even though they are asthmatic, are not getting the jab.<br /><br />IN truth, the vaccination program and the government response has been very poor but they have got away with it because swine flu has been so mild.<br /><br />As for the effectiveness of the jab, it may well be that you get a swine flu jab but then get seasonal flu. And this further highlights the stupidy of the system. Under 5s will be offered (eventually) a swine flu jab BUT they will not get a seasonal flu jab ! Why ? No reason.Nich Starlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04237390959601973501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-7488273564049102802009-12-26T15:02:11.692+00:002009-12-26T15:02:11.692+00:00You shouldn't have to make allowances because ...You shouldn't have to make allowances because it's Christmas Eve. This is a vital service that shouldn't ever muck up.<br /><br />In terms of the vaccine, I'm hearing of too many people who've had it and caught swine flu anyway, but it seems odd that if your son has a known respiratory problem that he isn't being vaccinated. In Scotland, all 1-5 are being offered the jab. Is that not the same in England?<br /><br />It looks like your wee one is over the worst, thankfully. I really feel for you all. It's horrible any time to have a sick child, but more so at Christmas when everything's shut down and it's so much more difficult to get drugs etc.<br /><br />Up here, we don't have a separate swine flu advice service. People just ring NHS 24 which I had my doubts about initially but actually I think it's much more sensible and practical.<br /><br />I hope your son gets well soon and that you and your wife don't get it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04988201531739344840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-61439757003922693052009-12-26T12:54:07.003+00:002009-12-26T12:54:07.003+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Auto Twitter Marketing Toolshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03513904142772091177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-3266454495920503812009-12-26T01:44:55.229+00:002009-12-26T01:44:55.229+00:00He's gone through 60 hours of it now and does ...He's gone through 60 hours of it now and does seem to have the milder form.

We have spent a couple of weeks caring for our 11 month grandson as he and his parents all went down with some form of flu and simply could not cope. It was exhausting work!. Plenty of fluids, nothing else matters much! And there must be plenty of spare vaccine around, most of the pensioners around this area seem to be turning down the opportunity to have it, including myself.English Pensionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15271488641341955140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33696095.post-31164585290323983042009-12-25T15:25:12.317+00:002009-12-25T15:25:12.317+00:00At the end of the day your are on your own to look...At the end of the day your are on your own to look after your son. just phone your own GP and go from there.
