Looks to be another issue arising with the formerly highly recommended swine flu vaccine- wait, did I say formerly? No, I didn’t mean it or maybe that’s personal bias coming through. Yup that’s what it is!
The European Medicines Agency has begun a review and investigation into Pandemrix which is the fancy smancy name for the swine flu vaccine. Looks to be causing some good ol’ fashioned side effects, which happen to be serious. Nope sure isn’t frequent urinating or even rashes. How about sleeping! Perhaps this could be the next wave of sleeping pills.
Okay, wise ass comments aside Europe is finding that perhaps the latest version of swine flu might be bringing on Narcolepsy which is a condition where a person randomly and suddenly FALLS ASLEEP! Yes, could be driving and falls asleep, could be walking the family dog and falls asleep, along with a variety of other activities.
Sweden also has begun investigation when reports are many young people were developing symptoms consistent narcolepsy after getting shot.
A British pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline produces these vaccines about thirty point eight billion people have gotten the vaccine.
Reports are also saying that Australia is banning the vaccine for children five years and younger. Across the globe there are some pull backs. Yet many countries, even those that have opened investigations with the vaccine are still encouraging folks to get the swine flu vaccine along with the common flu vaccine.
Companies start shipping US flu vaccines

Interesting video about H1N1 Vaccine. Take a look:
PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!!!!! www.ama-assn.org At the peak of the influenza A(H1N1) virus epidemic last year, Atlanta internist Sandra Fryhofer, MD, had to refuse vaccine for some patients because they did not fall into the priority groups set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That shouldn’t be a problem during the next flu season, as the Food and Drug Administration has decided to include a pandemic 2009 H1N1 virus in the Northern Hemisphere’s 2010-11 seasonal influenza vaccine. “This will make vaccine strategies much simpler so we can focus on getting people vaccinated and protected rather than trying to figure out which group they’re in or should they get [the vaccine] now or later,” said Dr. Fryhofer, clinical associate professor of medicine at Emory University School of Medicine and a member of the American Medical Association Council on Science and Public Health. The FDA announced Feb. 23 that an A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)-like virus would be included in next season’s flu vaccine. This is the same virus used in the 2009 H1N1 monovalent vaccine. Also included in the upcoming influenza vaccine will be an A/Perth/16/2009 (H3N2)-like virus and a B/Brisbane/60/2008-like virus. The FDA’s move was followed a day later by a federal panel’s recommendation to administer next season’s flu vaccine to nearly all Americans, including healthy young people, a group that was disproportionately affected by H1N1. The US H1N1 epidemic peaked in October 2009, with another surge …
