As many people are undecided if they should receive the Swine Flu vaccine for themselves or their children, many doctors are struggling with the same decision. In fact, the Examiner found that 60% of doctors oppose being immunized for the Swine Flu virus. More specifically, many medical professionals have expressed their concern over the fact that the safety trials for this particular vaccine were rushed.
CBS News has reported that one 27 year old pregnant woman in South Florida thought she had a cold until it turned bad so quickly and she finally discovered how deadly the H1N1 virus could be.
Aubrey Opdyke was admitted to the ICU where she spent 5 weeks in a drug induced coma. Opdyke is finally recovering, but one of the peculiar aspects of the H1N1 virus is that it causes severe complications in the lungs.

One medical professional’s blog states her concerns over forced vaccinations (which she opposes). Stories like this are extremely common while more people each day continue to look for alternative options for prevention.
