Vancouver Sun. The seasonal influenza vaccine that was pushed on everyone as an added preventive measure against H1N1 appears to have been responsible for actually inducing more cases of H1N1 infection (swine flu).

Researchers, led by Vancouver’s Dr. Danuta Skowronski, an influenza expert at the B.C. Centre for Disease Control, noticed in the early weeks of the pandemic that people who got a flu shot for the 2008-2009 winter seemed to be more likely to get infected with the pandemic virus than people who hadn’t received a flu shot. (ref. CIDRAP)

Five studies done in several provinces showed the same unsettling results. But initially research outside Canada did not, and the effect was dismissed as a ”Canadian problem,” a problem with the flu vaccine used in Canada.

But a new study suggests the findings were real the Vancover Sun reports in September 2012.

Skowronski and a group of researchers have recreated the event in ferrets. Their findings were presented Sunday at the Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, a major international infectious diseases conference taking place in San Francisco.
