If I know my H1N1 history properly it is called that after one of the first to die in that area because of it.
As for getting the vaccine, Do not get it while you have the virus.
Best idea is to follow these steps;
1. Take lots of Vitamin C and daily Vitamin regiments.
2. Make sure to eat properly, and drink a lot of water (At least 3 bottles a day.)
3. Go to the hospital and report that you have the virus and ask what the next step should be.
You want to be healthy when you get the vaccine, but if you fight of the virus and heal up fine you will not need the vaccine because you already have naturally created the H1N1 anti-bodies.
