Recently, there has been some discussion on this board about the wisdom (or lack thereof) of getting regular seasonal flu shots and/or the H1N1 flu vaccine (nasal delivery or injection). Today's New York Times ran the linked question/answer piece on the H1N1 vaccine which I thought might be of interest.
Incidentally, our oncologist is recommending that my husband get both vaccines. My husband does fall outside the age range for the first round of H1N1 vaccine, however.
