“It is recommended that that all persons with lupus receive H1N1 vaccine. There will be two types of vaccine one with adjuvant (booster) and one without. We would prefer the one WITHOUT the adjuvant. It may be difficult to obtain the vaccine without adjuvant, if this is the case we still recommend persons with lupus get vaccinated with the regular H1N1 vaccine.”
