Once again...Imagine if the Bush administration had been behind all the hysteria of this...
Yep,the schools really pressed to get our kids vaccinated. No way. I refused to succumb to the herded panic.
Remember the avian (bird) flu that was supposed to kill millions? And hey,what about movie popcorn? Has anybody done anything about that killer?
No one in my family did either and none of us have been seriously sick. I know one person whose son had the swine flu and though his whole family had antibodies none even got the sniffles. We really have to be careful because the threat of pandemic could easily be used to control a population in politically inconvenient times.
A doctor just recommended a relative (who is pregnant) to get the swine flu shot, and she just did. And then, a bit later, she is supposed to get the seasonal flu shot. I guess they put her at the top of the list for getting those shots since she is pregnant.
With me, however, I’ve never gotten a flu shot at any time... and it’s been a good many years that I’ve been around, too [i.e., if I died now, they would say it was of old age... LOL..] ...
Hubby and I saw our doc today, annual visit, his nurse said a lot of their patients who had the h1n1 had bad reactions to them including convulsions.
