I'm not a hardcore advocate of flu shots, I am someone who gets them, not for me but my elderly father and the many young children/babies I come in close proximity with now being in Iceland where everyone seems to have a new baby these days.
Actually, the inserts for the swine flu vaccines specifically listed GBS as a possible side-effect.
..and like I said, I don't frequent places where there are babies or sick elderly folks.
