Not many people know there is a health disorder called narcolepsy. It is one of the sleep disorder characterized by excessive sleepiness, even during the day. Most sufferers are very difficult to survive in the waking state and could not sleep at night.
It turns out a study in Finland found that children who received the pandemic H1N1 swine flu vaccine have 13 times greater likelihood to experience narcolepsy.

under 17 years is only 0.31 per 100,000. But in 2010, the number is 5.3 per 100,000, or 17 times higher while the rate of people with narcolepsy in adults has not changed, as reported in the journal Public Library of Science One.
Markku Partinen of Helsinki Sleep Clinic and Hanna Nohynek of the National Institute for Health and Welfare in Finland is also collecting data of vaccination and narcolepsy in children born between January 1991 and December 2005.
Markku also reported that the rate of narcolepsy in children vaccinated was 9 per 100,000, whereas in children who were not vaccinated only 0.7 per 100,000, or 13 times lower.
WHO also has conducted an investigation after the case appeared in Finland and Sweden two years ago and was lucky WHO did not find other countries that have experienced increases in narcolepsy during or after a pandemic.
