    Since the beginning of the pandemic in 19 April 2009 to 5 December, a total of 82 countries reported to FluNet. The total number of specimens reportedly positive for influenza viruses by NIC laboratories was 351,047. Of these, 258,698 (73.7%) were pandemic H1N1, 8,358 (2.4%) were seasonal A (H1), 23,777 (6.8%) were A (H3), 54,162 (15.4%) were A (not subtyped) and 6,047 (1.7%) were influenza B.

    For this reporting week (15 November to 5 December 2009); a total of 21 countries reported to FluNet. The total number of specimens reportedly positive for influenza viruses by NIC laboratories was 11,159. Of these, 10,286 (92.2%) were pandemic (H1N1) 2009, 111 (1.0%) were seasonal A (H1), 97 (0.9%) were A (H3), 580 (5.2%) were A (not subtyped), 85 (0.8%) were influenza B.

    258,658 confirmed cases in 82 countries since 19 April 2009. Of these 258,658 we are meant to believe that 10,582 have died? That's about 1 in 26 cases. Really?

    As you have pointed out, they've stopped laboratory confirming cases.
    The actual infection count is much much higher.

    Personally it's telling that you've ignored this bit.
    The above numbers represent only the specimens and results reported to FluNet. Some laboratories (NICs), under pressure of the pandemic surge, do not test for seasonal subtypes and accordingly, this data should be interpreted with caution.

    So can you show a single person who have definitely died from the vaccine or not?
    Or are you going to keep dodging the question?

    This.

    Oh but wait, it gets better. Th majority of the problems were,

    "flu-like illness, head-ache, dizziness and fainting, pins and needles, transient weakness of the vaccinated limb and nausea and vomiting"

    Exactly. Which are precisely the effects they warn you about when you get the jab - and why you are asked to sit down and wait for fifteen minutes before going home.
    One person every 7692 had an allergic reaction (My guess was it was caused by an allergy to eggs or something).

    They ask you about egg allergies too.

    Our family got the vaccine about three weeks ago - two adults early 40's, children aged 5 and 3. No side effects apart from the sniffles.

    apparently seasonal flu vaccines are made using eggs, one per vaccine, not sure how true that is but i read it in several places

    the swine flu vaccine is not made the same way

    Yeah, it's true that flu vaccines are cultured in chicken eggs with one (sometimes two) doses per egg. The swine flu vaccine is actually prepared in the same way ( see: http://www.wrha.mb.ca/professionals/influenza/files/orientation/Orientation_4-A.pdf )

    Obviously this is slow and costly. But there are other ways to make the vaccine (which is what you were probably refering to). The viruses can be grown in cell lines instead. The vaccine made this way is known as Optaflu. ( http://www.gsk.com/press_archive/press2005/flu_backgrounder.pdf )

    What does her opinion have to do with anything? Lets face it, going by this video which she also has on Youtube, I wouldn't place any kind of trust in her opinion on anything
