Swine Flu Vacination

Swine Flu Vacination

Dr. Shiano,
After I had my liver transplant 10 years ago I was told not to get "LIVE" vacinations, but only vacines made from dead viruses. The new Swine Flu Vacine coming out in October is a LIVE vacine. "It used a different "seed virus" to grow vaccine than other manufacturers, because it's a different type of vaccine: Flu shots are made of killed influenza virus, while FluMist is a live but weakened strain." Will it be safe for me to take this?
