yet when it comes to a flu shot that, according to your own sentence: "there seems to be a lot of the flu going around this year, emergency rooms packed with people who have the flu. ", not only doesn't appear to work, but even expedites the problem, it's all 'are you really saying pregnant woman shouldn't help their already weak immune system'

remind me again.. even with insurance, a US citizen would still have to pay for the use of these 'packed emergency rooms'

yes?
im talking about canada, i don't know whats going on the US in terms of the flu. what percentage of the population gets vaccinated anyways? i had the flu shot once and don't know of anyone who gets it. my girlfriend is pregnant and her doctor wants her to get the flu shot but i am not crazy about the idea. i've done lots of reading on it and there is so much conflicting info, its ridiculous. i am not trying to make this some kind of debate about letting people die in the streets or US healthcare problems.
