[editline]08:30PM[/editline] But it's Reaganomics![/QUOTE] Exactly The only thing that holds us down is this fucked up version of capitalism. It's not that we have poverty and sadness in every corner of our country. Regardless, I do recognize that we have problems(Even poverty), but we also have the capacity to change, we just need to do it.
I got my free swine flu shot yesterday. Not because I'm worried about getting it, but because I don't want to pass it on to other people who aren't able to have the vaccination for what ever reason (<10yo, allergic to eggs, etc).

This thread is not regressing into a Capitalism/Socialism argument, it's about Swine Flu! Anyway, I still fail to recognize why people refuse to be vaccinated for this, as though vaccinations are identical to the "scary shots" of the 1960s or 1970s.
I don't bash vaccines in general, there are surely many of them saving lives (like tetanus), but swine flu really isn't such an issue. Normal healthy person will just lie through it only with chicken soup, and the weaker ones like children and old people are also mostly cool if they get medical attention. It's not really necessary to get vaccinated against it, so if you get free one from government, good for you, if you don't, there is no need to panic, you will be probably OK anyway.

[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;17856278]It is worth noting the more popular cousin of Swine Flu, the Spanish Flu, specifically targeted young, healthy adults.[/QUOTE] But this is not the case, is it? And I am not sure about this, but I have feeling that this vaccine wouldn't work against Spanish flu.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;17856300]But this is not the case, is it? And I am not sure about this, but I have feeling that this vaccine wouldn't work against Spanish flu.[/QUOTE] Of course it wouldn't work, I'm just saying that the possibility of the Swine Flu emulating the Spanish Flu is very real. Of course, once I get the final death tally come March or April I can really be sure, but the Spanish Flu was the most deadly in the winter months.

We will see how things come out, and hope for the best.

Got the papper on decline or accept the flu shot today, I declined :v:
[QUOTE=John845;17853819]All you people who are deciding to go take the swine flu shots are fucking idiots. Tyvak is 100% correct in avoiding these shots. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJoCDqVXgRI[/url] Here's a video of a doctor who is an expert on infectious diseases who says that the vaccine is more deadly than the swine flu itself, and he will not give the shots to his own children. This was an interview on Fox News, so if you losers want to say I'm just linking to an Alex Jones video or something go get bent.[/QUOTE] Oh wow. I can't believe people here actually believe that the swine flu vaccine is going to kill you. What the FUCK could the WHO or the government gain from killing you?
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;17859593]Oh wow. I can't believe people here actually believe that the swine flu vaccine is going to kill you. What the FUCK could the WHO or the government gain from killing you?[/QUOTE] Most of the bollocks that people spout off is that they're supposedly going to kill 80% of the population which would be utterly pointless ruling over a handful of people, especially if it was for financial reasons.
Instead of getting the vaccine, try periodically washing your hands.
