Whatever you do, do NOT shop at Walmart during swine flu season.

I am happy to live in a place where I have to go out of my way to go to a Walmart, so I never do.

Jebus, you're trying a bit too hard to fit in to your new environment.

Limited swine flu vaccines. Goldman Sachs got 200, a nearby hospital also only got 200. Apparently a number of bankers and etc got vaccines before medical professionals.
Interesting.
Jesus said to the servants, "Fill the jars with water"; so they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet." They did so, and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew.

Well, we know that bankers are MUCH more important. At least they think so.

Interesting.
Those bank companies could get some positive coverage by donating their supplies to those people who will help protect us all like the frontline medical personnel.

Re: Protests over forced swine flu injections
One of my little brothers came down with the swine flu.
Others have not yet, but they live in same house.
One of them (that did not) has a history of respiratory problems and has almost died from regular flu on two occasions.
The vaccine hasn't been available for them to take, otherwise they would have had it.
He could have had it, but it would have required mom drive a large distance to get it, something she just can't take the time to do when she has four special needs kids in the house.
That is exactly why mandatory vaccines are a bad thing, demand is greater than supply and some who may have their lives saved by it do not get it.
The one who came down with it is better now, so hopefully lack of symptoms in anyone else means they were successful in preventing it's spread in the home.

Re: Protests over forced swine flu injections
What percentage of the vaccine has been used for mandatory vaccination?
I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.

I'm sorry to hear about your brother, resedit. I hope that he gets through it without infecting anyone and no lasting problems.
The mandatory vaccinations were proposed with the assumption that there would be adequate supplies. Now that it is clear that the US vaccine manufacturers were lying about their production by at best a factor of 5 (that is, the best numbers for H1N1 vaccine supplies is 30 million dosages when they promised that the supply available by now should have been 150 million, and there are questions about how solid that 30 million count is), all mandatory programs make no sense. You cannot make mandatory something which isn't readily available.

You can, but you have to limit the mandate, and reroute supplies towards the desired populations.
