That depends on your risk group. If you have an underlying illness or are pregnant then they are recommending the Swine Flu shot or mist. Keep in mind that the suspended the no Mercury rule to expedite the vaccine. Personally I would not get it as I am not in a high risk group. There are some non-mecury vaccines available but you have to ask for them. When vaccinating a child I would personally always ask for vaccines without Mercury The swine flu vaccine also contains arsenic and other "fillers and stabilizer's that are listed on the CDC website. It is a good site to look at so one can make an informed decision.
