Just found a great website called www.informationisbeautiful.net

Their page on Swine Flu is here

It puts the risk in context really well I think.

Anyone who is having worries should have a look.

Thank you lowrib, very informative.

Was feeling a bit low tonight after my mum came on the phone ranting about a lady who has just died from SF. Apparently she went into hospital healthy, had her baby, then caught SF and died.

Im nrly 37 weeks PG and been so nervous and didn't know what to do. Been hiding indoors with a very bored 2 yr old this week!

This puts it all in context for me - what a load of hype SF has had, why am I loosing sleep over it!!

Although the diagrams are a really nice way to display information, the way the statistics have been worked out is seriously flawed and although I've only had a quick look there are some absolutely glaring errors in the maths.

Don't believe it. Most of her sources are government websites or BMJ articles, neither of which are unbiased. There have been many stories of miscarriage immediately after having the swine flu vaccine. preview.tinyurl.com/yeofg68 . There is a lot of accurate info out there if you know where to look - and anything written by vaccine manufacturers (which the NHS info is) cannot be deemed unbiased.
