Flu shot, or not?

I just got my shot today.

As for the mercury preservatives in vaccines, I've been following the debate. Our son is autistic, so we are of course concerned that their is the possibility that something we did to protect him injured him.

I don't know if it's going to turn out be be Thimerosal, or just a reaction to a combination of vaccines, but the statistics for Autism in the US are frightening and seem to indicate that the cause might be something more prevalent in the US than elsewhere in the world.

I don't know if they have the same number and type of vaccinations in Europe, so that's a place to start.
