What???
I've been getting flu vaccines every year since 1999. That's because in 1998 I got a horrible case of the flu. It was so bad that I couldn't walk. I was stuck in my bed for a week, and I was still sick a month after.
If you're not getting it because of some philosophical rhetoric, realize that the only person that really cares about your stance is you.

Actually, I probably am going to get it... not 100% sure yet... but it's not even available where I am until November 16th (for healthy males), so there is no hurry.
I just think that there is measurable risk and people should not be made to feel inferior if they choose not to get it.
But if you really want to know what the fear is based, it's based on the very valid possibilty that rushed vaccines in the past HAVE caused negative health effect:

The data establishing these links is presented in the peer-reviewed February 2000 and August 2002 articles. The published findings (1) strongly suggest that the GWS-like illness being reported by all of the various patient groups is the same illness, (2) strongly suggest that the contaminated vaccine caused the illness in the AVIP group, and (3) further suggest that squalene contamination of one or more 1990-1991-era vaccines accounts for the GWS cases from that era.
