The Chicken or the Egg? or the Vaccination?

Ok, we have at one stage asked the chicken or the egg? which one came first?

Well... I still do not know the answer to that question but am faced with another more concerning. My son is allergic to egg (anaphylactic), I always have to be careful in reading ingredients and making sure that he does not have anything with egg in it. My concerns are always "does anything have egg in it?" apparently it should also be "is anything in the egg?". I have stumbled across a very interesting and informative article. It is worth a read. I had no idea that the flu vaccine is grown in chicken eggs and may contain tiny traces of egg protein.

MORE EVIDENCE FLU SHOT IS SAFE FOR THOSE WITH EGG ALLERGIES
