U.S. May Add Shots for Swine Flu to Fall Vaccine Regimen

The Obama administration is considering an unprecedented fall vaccination campaign that could entail giving Americans three flu shots — one to combat annual seasonal influenza and two targeted at the new swine flu virus spreading across the globe.
If enacted, the multibillion-dollar effort would represent the first time that top federal health officials have asked Americans to get more than one flu vaccine in a year, raising serious challenges concerning production, distribution and the ability to track potentially severe side effects.
…
Memories of the nation’s earlier experience with a swine flu vaccine present another challenge. In 1976, hundreds of Americans developed neurological disorders after they were vaccinated for a swine flu strain. The public was asked to receive one of two vaccines developed to combat the strain.
…
The greater challenge will be tracking any adverse reactions as millions of Americans get multiple vaccinations in a matter of months this fall and winter.
“There will be adverse effects to any vaccine. That’s just science,” said Michael Hattwick, who ran the CDC’s vaccine-tracking system during the last swine flu scare.
If I were home living in the states, which I’m not and won’t be…I would never take this.
Picture me as Val Kilmer in Tombstone as Doc Holiday, hacking my way to the tomb, cold sweat dripping off my nose…smiling.
Rummy you can take your drugs elsewhere…
Ha.
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
I would have liked a third survey answer, as it would have allowed me to respond most honestly: “I’ll take it only if they put a gun to my head/threated to take my kids away/etc”.
At time of writing, 13 people (4%) have voted in favour of taking the shots.
What are these people doing on this site? Have they not been paying attention? Do they have reading comprehension problems?
Incredible.

Some searching which I can’t do now should be done re ORMES and the experiments being done with them on the military.
Just imagine Mexico, the home of the Mayans. Hah. The home of the swine flu.
Give me a break Morons.
