The flip side of the story is that when the great "cull" begins, they want to be sure key peoples in key infrastructures can still come into work. There was language to that effect sprinkled throughout the news (mostly foreign news ) during the summer.. An interesting personal note: I have a good friend, an EMT that flew up from Australia whom i met at Ground Zero during the search and rescue phase that i still keep in touch with regularly. He said the H1N1 fiasco down (he's in Townsville) there was a bust. A whole lot of "the sky is falling" in the news, but relatively few deaths. "If you did not watch the news you would have never known it was anything other than a regular flu season" Remember, they just went through their winter during our summer. -food for thought.

Show the big shots getting it before the average Joe to increase demand by the average Joe. Just like the Flames in Canada." I thought it was working the other way - persuade the average Joe it's no good so there's enough to go round the big shots. #2 “Looks like more marketing.

I will happily take my non compulsory free H1N1 flu shot next week provided by my employer and do my bit towards increasing herd immunity in the population. I would not like to think that ANY other person had died (as they have been) because *I* had inadvertently passed the illness on to them because I thought I had a God-given right NOT to be vaccinated. Vaccination works. Get a life, antivaxxers, or at least stop potentially taking life from others because of ill-informed paranoia.

Gee I wonder what that's about. I would like to post more on the subject of farm animals being healthier and smarter than humans, but I first have to finish my studies on pigs and patents.

Wouldn't the "public health system" that distributes vaccines and such have a well worn procedure of who to give the meds to? And if not why not? I assume "The Biggest 25 Businesses" don't have nurses on staff to administer these shots nor do the Businesses have the needles to administer it. Something is f*cked up and its not the "simple fact" that somehow these Businesses jumped the line. A few people should go to jail. The targets are too many to mention.

I took the regular shot. I'm taking C and D and with a trace of anti swine flu in all those regular shots I've had through the years I hope to be fine. Others at higher risk can be lab rat.

The vaccine is being distributed according to the free market system, just like the Republican conservatives like. If you want your "fair share", go to another socialist country. I expect gasoline to be distributed the same way some day. Then listen to everyone complain while they are walking or peddling. You know, the complainers that voted for the status quo.

It's pretty scarce but my doctor was able to get 30 shots. I don't want the flu again. I haven't had it in 12 years since I've been getting flu shots. I've never had the slightest reaction from any flu shot. I had the regular flu vaccine and pneumonia vaccine last week. I'm covered. I’m getting my H1N1 vaccine tomorrow.
