Arguments such as swine flu vaccine is a hundred times more dangerous than the swine flu, high death rates of swine flu compared to seasonal influenza, demand of immunity from lawsuits by manufacturers of vaccines, Thiomersal is horribly dangerous and causes brain damage equivalent to a loss in 10 IQ points, that squalene is present in the H1N1 pandemic influenza vaccine and that it creates autoimmune diseases and Neomycin and polymyxin B sulfate exhibit positive risk to an unborn child, are discussed and refuted with evidence based information.Arguments such as swine flu vaccine is a hundred times more dangerous than the swine flu, high death rates of swine flu compared to seasonal influenza, demand of immunity from lawsuits by manufacturers of vaccines, Thiomersal is horribly dangerous and causes brain damage equivalent to a loss in 10 IQ points, that squalene is present in the H1N1 pandemic influenza vaccine and that it creates autoimmune diseases and Neomycin and polymyxin B sulfate exhibit positive risk to an unborn child, are discussed and refuted with evidence based information.
