Well, here's another point of view....

I had the Swine Flu vaccine--twice--way back in the '70's, courtesy of Uncle Sam. We went thru this government scare of "The Flu" way back then. The first batches of the Swine Flu vaccine had problems and were quickly pulled from the market. The Prez ordered that all members of the military take the new, reformulated vaccine to prove that it was ready for the general public.

So here's my question, since I've already had the shot twice, does that make me more bullet proof that the rest of ye?

Jim

No H1N1 flu shot for us. We have no desire to be a medical experiment concieved in haste, hype and fear mongering.

It's going to wipe out the middle class! and the aliens that are controlling the governments have ordered them to do it (or else!) I think the media is just too much, anybody can see that! Thanks to the airstream way of optional living, we are far away enough from large groups of people and will remain that way. I heard those shots (some of them) had mercury...and to top that off they come up short...whats going on? This is (supposed) to be America. Everytime one of those loudmouthed commercials comes on TV I hit the mute button! Ha!Don't take me seriously, but we are not going to take it.

Flu shots for Wall Street stirs ire in New York

By Bill Berkrot
NEW YORK (Reuters) - New York City health officials scrambled to explain themselves on Thursday following outraged media reports about bankers who got scarce H1N1 flu vaccines through their employers.
Although there is a longstanding arrangement for employers to provide seasonal flu shots to workers, the city health department was bombarded with calls and television reports about Wall Street workers jumping the line ahead of pregnant women and children.

Hmmmmmm...since we all know that Wall Street takes WAY too many risks...I guess this confirms that we should all avoid the H1N1 vaccine

Slowly and surely we are all headed towards something in the future you know, now they are slamming a poor siamese cat somewhere about it. And I know it all should be paid attention to while we get through it.

Steve and I got our regular flu shots when we had our yearly physicals in early October (or was it late Sept?). We were advised by our doctors that our age group didn't need the H1N1 so we probably won't be getting it.
