Pregnant women rejecting swine flu vaccine over safety fears

Pregnant women are rejecting GPs’ attempts to persuade them to have the swine flu vaccine in their droves.

GPs across the country have reported that mothers-to-be are saying no to the vaccine because of concerns about the vaccine’s safety.

Dr Chris Udenze, a GP in Nottingham, said there was widespread scepticism about the vaccine among his pregnant patients.

‘In all the pregnant women we’ve offered it to, I think only about one in 20 has agreed,’ he said.

Where will this end?
