Just last week, the government media was pushing people to get the H1N1 vaccine because it will soon expire, leaving tens of millions of doses to be dumped...yet another money pit promoted by BO.
Only about 40% of the people got the shots, proving once again that the people are much smarter than the government and its hyperventilating media water carriers.
“yet another money pit promoted by BO”
It was world-wide, not just here. I can see the drug companies following right along with WHO and the CDC.
Why not, they got paid.
Those vaccines were paid for- in part - by the stimulus bill.
@6 Billion was allocated to the drug companies for flu vaccines.
