Hoax just like in 1976. More people died from the vaccine than from the flu itself.
Remember these TV ads?

Oh, yeah, I remember it. Just as I recall Gerald Ford's "whip inflation now" WIN buttons which helped to install the worst president in the 20th century.
Haven't had a flu shot -- ever, and won't. More than half the time the MD scientists miss the flu virus target (for the vaccine) completely and, besides, the shots have risks in and of themselves.
