Here the vaccine is available free to everyone. I had my shot a couple of weeks ago,on the first day it was available. I had my annual flu shot a month or so before that.
Some people argue (stupidly imo) that Swine flu is no worse than other,common strains. As at August 30,there had been 150 deaths in Australia due to swine flu. The 'ordinary flu' causes about 2500 deaths in Australia each year.
I'm an older man in poor health; any kind of flu is life threatening for me. When adults choose not to be vaccinated,catch whatever disease it may be,and die, we are seeing evolution in action,as nature weeds out the stupid.
