the pols already passed obamacare. why the hype now?
Just last week, the government media was pushing people to get the H1N1 vaccine because it will soon expire, leaving tens of millions of doses to be dumped...yet another money pit promoted by BO.
Only about 40% of the people got the shots, proving once again that the people are much smarter than the government and its hyperventilating media water carriers.

I called BS on this right away. I knew it was another Al Gore type global scam.
I was smaet enough to refuse the shot. Thank goodness
H1N1 was not a scam. It’s a new strain of flu that millions of people contracted and we are lucky that it killed relatively few. Debating the merits of getting the vaccine is reasonable but calling it a scam is a bit much I think. That being said, the media, as usual, was derelict in it’s coverage.
Next time you have a gut feeling, pay attention.
fyi
It sounds like Oboma has reduced the surplus population. Better yet, they're all of breeding age. He got two birds with one stone.
Bet you a hundred that next year there will be a new unknown flu that is going to KILL THE WORLD!!! AAAAAAAHH!!
Let’s see we had bird flu. Had pig flu. Ok,ok, it has a common animal to be effective...
I hereby nominate “cat flu” to be the next one. We’ll call it “feline fever”.
That’s my vote anyway.
Very interesting article. This was the first year that my husband and I found out about Vitamin D, so we started taking it. Neither one of us even got a respiratory infection this year. Vit. D is great! We started out on 3,000 iu, then built it up to 6,000 iu. Now soon we’ll have to start taking it down for the summer months.
Also, we didn’t get a flu shot.
Maybe the old farts over 64 who aren’t allowed to get rationed flu vaccine - will have the last laugh.

I kind of like “llama flu.”
My teenagers were under pressure from school to get vaccinated. I gave them the choice and they chose Not to get the shot. None of us got sick at all this winter.
I went to doc for low Thyroid and found out I was low on Vitamin D. I've been taking it ever since.
Flu or flu ping.
Well, they’re starting the flu scare early this year I see.
“yet another money pit promoted by BO”
It was world-wide, not just here. I can see the drug companies following right along with WHO and the CDC.
Why not, they got paid.
Those vaccines were paid for- in part - by the stimulus bill.
@6 Billion was allocated to the drug companies for flu vaccines.
