A DOZEN people here have reported serious reactions to the Influenza A (H1N1) vaccinations, ranging from allergic reactions and persistent vomiting to breathing difficulties.

The health authorities say, however, that these side effects are similar to those experieced by patients who have been given the vaccine for the seasonal flu.

The 12 patients, aged between 24 and 58, were flagged by doctors as either needing hospitalisation or having reactions considered life threatening. They have all since recovered or are recovering.
