I was told the other day that we will receive 1200 doses of vaccine for a population of 45,000. I’m sure the antiviral dose ratio is similar. Why should we pay for other countries to have a vaccine?

My son (the one with weakest immune system) is just getting over a case of H1N1. It cost him 1.5 days of college classes. His symptoms were typical flu symptoms - but they weren't so bad that he requested a visit from the "mombulance".

This whole thing is a total exaggeration.

Next year they'll be insisting on protecting us from the Boogey Man.

Don’t take this matter lightly.

My mother was an Army Nurse in Houston during the Flu epidemic of 1917, and she told me that all they could do was try to keep body temperatures down while watching soldiers die.

Yeah, Unless we pay, people who are governed by crooks may die. Well maybe it time for these people to rise up and take control of their own countries. It’s time for the US to cut off the foreign countries that hate us. If Americas gives you money, goods, or services, you do what we tell you to do. If you don’t want to do that, fine, don’t take our foreign aid!

I Am Proud To Be A Racist.

I acknowledge there are differences between human races,
and I believe ALL Races are equally beloved by God --
and that He made us different for a reason.
Vive le difference!
I celebrate our differences,
And I thank our Creator who gave us rich Diversity
instead of stultifying uniformity.
Amen.

So, can we get on with it now?

I saw this posted on an earlier thread. Very interesting. It addresses H1N1, the vaccine, vaccines in general, past outbreaks and what to do if you are forced to take the vaccine. I encourage everyone to watch it before deciding to take the vaccine. It’s in 4 parts.

You know how it is with the ‘tards, they have so many ‘worthy causes’ that they are just bound to conflict at times.

Apparently the UN and the WHO have totally abandoned any concern regarding their credibility. The hysteria over becoming totally irrelevant has overwhelmed both organizations.
