		<description>I had swine flu around Halloween this year and www.telldrbob.com/swineflu allowed me to skip a visit to my clinic and hence avoid infecting others.  In less than 5 minutes, the website asks you basic questions about your symptoms, existing medical conditions, etc. If you think you may have swine flu, check out the site!</description>

		<description>Thanks for the info, another resource I found useful was United Healthcare&#039;s presentation on Swine flu. It discusses the symptoms, how to prevent it, and what to do if you have it: http://my.brainshark.com/2009-H1N1-Flu-Swine-Flu-Protecting-Yourself-and-Your-Family-666413744</description>

		<description>Response from Robert Jacobson, M.D.
Thank you for your comment, but we want to be absolutely clear that the most accurate information about vaccines is in the public domain. In response to your comment, it is, in fact, exactly the opposite of what you posted. We have no data supporting the idea that thimerosal in vaccines is harmful. The government and manufacturers removed for purely theoretical reasons the thimerosal from vaccines in the routine childhood vaccines. Since the removal, the data are clear that the removal had no effect whatsoever on children&#039;s health, and we continue to have no data or evidence ever showing the harm of thimerosal in vaccines or not. I would encourage those who wish to review the evidence to access the following web site at the Institute of Medicine (http://www.iom.edu/en/Reports/2003/Immunization-Safety-Review-Thimerosal---Containing-Vaccines-and-Neurodevelopmental-Disorders.aspx) and the associated materials. Bottom line: the IOM&#039;s committee to evaluate all the evidence concluded the following: &quot;The committee found no proof that vaccines with thimerosal are dangerous. The amount of thimerosal in vaccines was low. The effects of such small amounts have not been well studied by scientists.&quot;</description>

		<description>Overwhelming evidence backed up by publicly available research data shows that vaccines containing Thimeresol harms children’s brains. Even though the pharmaceutical companies and governments won’t admit it, we do not need an official declaration to know that they are in fact unsafe. Both governments and pharmaceutical companies can be found liable if they were to officially admit that Thimerseol in vaccines and other aluminum based ingredients do in fact harm children’s brain. This is why they will not officially declare these types of vaccines unsafe. Visit http://fluhealer.blogspot.com to get your latest Swine Flu Pandemic updates.</description>

		<description>Dr. William Marshall says: There are many varieties of H1N1 influenza.  Unfortunately, exposure to seasonal strains of H1N1 influenza or vaccination against the same does not induce immunity to the pandemic swine-origin H1N1 influenza A that is now circulating.</description>
