No, you cannot get the flu from the swine flu vaccine. What the H1N1 vaccine does is inject dead or weakened flu germs. That way if you do get the flu, your body will know what to do. But you can't get the flu from the vaccine.
interval- flu vaccine and the shingles vaccine
Yes, you can get flu vaccine and varicella vaccine at the same time.
Q-pan is the approved vaccine for Avian Flu or H5N1.
What you are talking about is a vaccine that is given by injection so you will not get the flu. The flu mutate all the time so you will need to get vaccines for each new strain. The first vaccine was used in 1940 during WWII.
The flu vaccine is recommended for children and the elderly but nobody is forced to get it. Whether or not to get a flu vaccine is a personal choice.

You are not immune to Influenza. Even getting the yearly flu vaccine is no guarantee that a person won't get the flu. You can get the flu but it won't be as bad as it could be if you hadn't received the flu vaccine.
yes, if it is for the same vaccine, but not if it is for a new vaccine against a different flu
No. These viruses mutate rapidly and you can not get one vaccine for all of the subtypes.
Each flu vaccine is targeted to specific varieties of the flu virus. Unless another type of flu is very similar to the targeted virus, it will not be prevented with that vaccine. Having said that, since the 2010-2011 flu season through to the current 2011-2012 season, the "regular" seasonal flu vaccine, which always contains three types of flu vaccine (trivalent), has included the swine flu along with the other two varieties to which the vaccine was targeted. So in that sense, at least currently, the swine flu vaccination is effective against the regular flu since vaccines for each type are put together in one vaccination.
