Virus Mutation?

I was wondering if anyone had any available information about the vaccine 
known as "Fluvax?" please. Particularly if it has been given to a patient 
that then later went on to develop an Asthma like reaction approx. 6 
weeks later? It presents as an interesting case because this patient has 
never suffered from Asthma before. Currently the patient is slowly 
improving, but as Asthma seems to be increasing to almost 
Epididimological proportions here in Brisbane, I was wondering if there 
might be some other reasons that no one here has as yet considered?
Back with the "Fluvax" drug, It's been suggested that the 
Texas/Beijing/Panama virus has a strange capacity to mutate, but I wonder 
if anyone might know what are the factors that might be contributing to 
these "mutations?" I leave you all with this thought:-
Virus/s and Bacterium might be increasing, but I hope We are smarter than 
they are!
Warmest Regards, W.G. Frank.
