Were you advised to have an influenza vaccination during pregnancy?

Regarding influenza vaccination during pregnancy: “No studies have adequately assessed the risk of influenza vaccination during pregnancy, and animal safety testing is lacking…The ACIP’s recommendation of influenza vaccination during pregnancy is not supported by citations in its own policy paper or in current medical literature. Considering the potential risks of maternal and fetal mercury exposure, the administration of thimerosal during pregnancy is both unjustified and unwise.” http://www.jpands.org/vol11no2/ayoub.pdf
