Millions refused the H1N1 shot last year, so now they combine it with the yearly flu shot. I personally don't want anything to do with it. With Bill Gates statement earlier this year about vaccines and health care, we all should be a little leary about it.
OKLAHOMA CITY — For those concerned about the impending flu season, the government will be making the seasonal flu vaccine available again this year.
Except this year, there is a difference -the normal seasonal flu vaccine will be combined with swine flu (H1N1) vaccine as well.
Gates made his remarks to the invitation-only Long Beach, California TED2010 Conference, in a speech titled, “Innovating to Zero!.” Along with the scientifically absurd proposition of reducing manmade CO2 emissions worldwide to zero by 2050, approximately four and a half minutes into the talk, Gates declares, "First we got population. The world today has 6.8 billion people. That's headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent."
Don't get it then. I got the H1N1 vaccine because I work with young children. We actually had a student in the county below us die of H1N1. I was not going to risk having my child get H1N1.
actually they are REcombining the H1N1 flu vaccine with the seasonal vaccine. the H1N1 virus is a strain of influenza A, and the influenza A vaccine was removed from the seasonal flu vaccine two years ago.
as for getting a flu shot, sorry i wont get one. the last time i got a flu shot i was required to by the school system, and i got the damn flu!!!!
I had a really bad flu, this time, and I will do anything to avoid the accompanying bronchitis, and choking cough. It was like asthma, hayfever, pneumonia, and a bad cold on top of the other stuff. Never again. It lasted a month. We forget hell when it is safely behind us. This was no ordinary flu.
