I read just the opposite about side effects. I read that a sore arm, flu like symptoms and a fever for a day or two is a common side effect but no other problems have arisen with the vaccine. Hmmm. I guess it depends on the news source. I believe I heard about no serious side effects from one of the TV networks.
