The flu kills about 35,000 people a year in the United States.
Mostly elderly and people with weak immune systems, but hey it'd be nice if those folks could spend a few more christmas dinners with their families.

Yes, then we can begin to kill babies by the millions and rape them of their stem cells so that we can give 90 yr old decrepit people an extra 3 months to live. The only people that I have ever known that took this crap got the worst flu of their lives from it, so I am in no way convinced that not having an extra 10 million doses saves any lives. I wouldn't take it to begin with even if they were paying to give it away. A little good vomit and day of runs cleans out the system. :-) There are no lines at all down here in Little Rock, it isn't that big of a deal believe me, I could care less personally.

I agree. Give the older folks their shot. healthy people step aside. Gammy & Gamps have a few more years to share with us.
