'Govenment to offer swine flu vaccinations to under-5s' Would you have your DCs vaccinated?

[Sallypuss]

Saw this on the BBC website just now. Would you have your DCs vaccinated?

My first thought is no as I don't think we fully understand the side effects yet and it feels a bit of a knee jerk reaction by the government. My dd is 12 months old.

Apologies if this has been done to death on other threads....

no swine flu jab for my ds or me

That's strange, I spoke to my GP yesterday who said that they are not giving them to under 5's until after all the other at risk people have been done.

If you get sick and need to spend 2 weeks in bed, who looks after your DC's?

Would you want your DC's to spend 2 weeks in bed feeling miserable with the risk of serious complications (DS2 is 2.5 but only weighs 11.3 kgs)?

We have all had the jab. And we're fine.
