Do you think that pregnant woman should have to get the swine flu vaccine?

No one really knows the effect on the unborn baby.Why should we have them be one of the test subjects?

I don't think anyone should HAVE TO do anything. I believe it is the choice of the individual. Under the supervision of a doctor and with the proper education about the risks each person should make thier own choice.

Here are some articles:

Seems like most "officials" agree pregnant women should get the vaccine.
Asker's Rating:
• I totally agree.

I think in all senses of being pregnant no drugs should be given to you for this problem with swine flu or any other problem with viruses. It is very harmful to the babies as they are just to small and under developed to take the vaccine in. No women should have to take this if pregnant.

If you read the actual vaccine inserts, you will discover that they have not been tested for safety with pregnant women.

I would not vaccinate before doing more research. Here is a great vaccine information website, as well as a couple of relevant articles:

National Vaccine Information Center
