Congratulations! Your vaccine is ready!

In Europe, many countries have an excess of H1N1 swine flu vaccines and some of them already started selling them.
I don't know if this is the reason, because I received a notice in postal mailbox which invites me to take my vaccine.

It's weird because my french friends and collegues at work didn't receive any invitation. Everybody finds it curious... or maybe they just want to test the vaccine on me! eheh

I think I'll do business too... I'm going to sell my invitation. Anyone interested? eheheh

I got the yellow fever virus!

It's magic! I haven't started yet my trip to the Amazon jungle and I managed to get infected by a tropical virus! eheheh

In order to follow the recommendations, today I took the yellow fever vaccine. It's not mandatory if you travel to the Amazon, but since the beginning of 2008 the risk level has increased. :P

So I paid a visit to the Institute Pasteur in Paris, in order to get ready for all kinds of virus and diseases. They gave me a list of all vaccines I should take: hepatitis A and B, dengue fever, rage, yellow fever, etc and etc. About 8 recommended vaccines! Thank you, but no thank you! eheh

I decided then to have the most recommended one, for yellow fever. Not that I fear needles, but the price for each vaccine scared me! eheh I think it was an allergy! ;)

How did I get the virus? Well, every time you get a vaccine you are being deliberately infected with a weak form of a virus. That's how I made a new friend: the yellow fever virus.
Now my immune system will recognize the vaccine agents as foreign, destroy them, and 'remember' them.... so I hope! eheheh

The list of possible side effects and reactions is big: fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle pain, swelling, difficulty breathing, skin rashes and spasms.
For the moment, I just don't feel my left arm quite well! eheheh

Oh yes... the next few days will be very funny! :P
