Has the swine flu vaccination been adequately tested, or are we the guinea pigs?
A swine flu vaccination campaign will be launched in the autumn, but only certain at risk groups, including pregnant women, will be given the jab.
Those with underlying health conditions up to the age of 65 have been identified as the first priority in the UK followed by pregnant women.
Health and social care workers will also get the jab, meaning about 14m people will be immunised by December.
The government has yet to decide whether everyone should be given it.
There are contracts in place for 132m doses of the jab - enough for the whole population as people will require two shots.

One question. Speaking as a pregnant woman, is there any chance that the vaccine will be fully tested by this date? Only a thought!
