I said I was done with this but I lied . . . sort of.

It would be in everybody's best interest to read this before developing an "opinion". And click on the links contained therein:

What?! Science has something to do with medicine? With all the talk of sheep and livestock around here I was convinced medicine was based on agriculture.

The wife and I are getting our shots tomorrow. I'm not scared of getting the H1N1 virus because I'm strong enough to fight it off. I just want to do everything I can to protect my 5 month old daughter who doesn't qualify for the shot from getting sick.

The next time somebody asks me why I think representative democracy is flawed I'm just going to send them a link to this thread, draw your own conclusions.

Either you don't understand what the word respiratory means or we have very dissimilar anatomy.

I know the media got pretty bored with blowing it all out of proportion huh? What have they moved onto? I haven't been watching the news lately.

All I know is that damn shot makes you feel like **** for 2 days after. If that's a little taste of the H1N1 virus I'd hate to see what the full blown version would feel like.

Must be a slow news day. When you delve a little deeper into this over-hyped news story this is what you find:

According to the Associated Press, in the batch that was recalled, there were just 6 cases of severe allergic reaction out of 170,000 doses. However, they expected there to only be about one or two from a batch that size, so they asked doctors to stop using them. A spokesman for Canada's health minister says there doesn't appear to be a major cause for alarm. He says the reports may be a statistical anomaly.

I love it when the news bastardizes something like this to drum up readership/viewership and then facilitates the uninformed to run with the story and gets plastered all over the internet. The article is intentionally ambiguous with its brevity. More fear mongering for more sales - it's grrrrrrrreat!
