As I said. I'm reading the same literature as you. You find it thorough, I don't. Simple as that.

Maybe you can help me out and answer one of my main concerns re. why it has taken a pandemic for HC to approve an adjuvant containing flu vaccine when common sense dictates that this would be best practice in years past?

It's simple things like that, that are bugging me.

I can't see cost being an issue as surely prevention is cheaper than cure? Wouldn't adjuvants (which are nothing new) in seasonal vaccines have possibly saved lives over the years?

As you say agree to disagree. I apologize for calling you hysterical.
I guess I trust the conclusions our scientists have drawn from the available data. I also have not seen one shred of evidence to support the anti-vaccine nonsense. You ask about adjuvants - how the hell would I know anything about that? It comes back to trusting the experts on this - experts who have everything to gain from helping me and nothing to gain from misleading me.

And forget about government bodies if that makes you feel more comfortable. I think you'd have an impossible time finding one single medical doctor in Calgary that is opposed to this vaccine.

Where I fail to understand your perspective is when you say you've read the same evidence I have read, but have drawn a different conclusion. How is that even possible? You've read the Health Canada site, the WHO site, the Mayo Clinic site and the FDA site - all of which are unanimous in their support of the H1N1 vaccine - yet you disagree with them. On what basis are you qualified to refute their findings?

I assume you're as tired of this back and forth as I am - reply if you like, I'll read your response and thank you, but at this point I think we've said everything we can.
