As I understand it it best to get the shot because they have no idea when the infections will peak out. It does take some time (a few weeks ) for the vaccine to cause your body to produce the antibodies but It may be that even more people have the swine flu in December than now. As I understand it they have no idea when it will be at peak.
They are also saying that the most severe cases are in people who have it , then appear to get better , then relapse a day or two later. So even after someone feels better you got to watch them for a few days to a week to be sure they don't relapse. From what I know , if you do see a relapse , get the person to the doctor immediately , even if you have to go the ER route to get seen quickly.
