H1N1 Vaccine

Does anyone have some good articles to link to regarding cautions re. the H1N1 vaccine? Chris wants us all to get it, and we're qualified now, being in the highest-risk groups (exposure at home and a health worker in the house). I've seen a few articles here and there, but the ones I remember had some pretty big logic holes in them, or seemed to indicate that the vaccine is safe for everyone but not completely tested yet for pregnant women and small children.

So much for that...

Showed up at 5:10PM at the vaccine clinic, which opened at 5:00. Were told at 5:15 that they were closed for the night, as they were all out of vaccine. Apparently people had been lined up starting at 2:30.

Gosh, but folks were miffed about it. One guy threatened to "take it to the highest court in the country" and ranted about "this racist country!" (he looked & sounded Hispanic) but we left before security was called. CTV was hanging out; maybe he'll be on the news :)
