If Hillary could blame Bush for slow vaccine back a few years, then I blame Hussein Obama for this fiasco. Quid pro quo !!

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton is blasting the Bush administration for the flu vaccine shortage

I also remember that idiot Kerry blaming Bush too.

Are these two blaming Obama now???

CDC Says 4,000 Swine Flu Deaths In US

Where's the vaccine? Where's our President? Why is he doing NOTHING?

 

[klein]

For me, it's finally available Friday.
Still wondering if I should get one or not.
But, travelling thru 4 airports, 3 planes (1 way), hotel stays, and many restaurants, etc. I think I should.

the vaccines are produced by private companies, free market ,that sort of thing. What would you have the president do? Take over these companies and hire more workers? Should he and his family members work part time on the production lines.
I know you are from Mass. and hence are used to expecting the government to do everything for you but come one

Actually, I just LOVE blaming Obama because that's exactly what the Libs did to President Bush.

If it was President Bush's fault back then, wouldn't you agree that it's Obamas fault now?

I know nothing and hence cannot agree or disagree.

If opinions had to be based on knowledge I would have nothing to say.

By the time you get the vaccine your body will already be immune to this stuff.

The best way to stop the spread of the epidemic is to spread the awareness.

Doctor And Son Get H1N1 Twice

Great.....

 

[SmithBarney]

Over9 seems you must be in the wrong state.
One of the largest H1N1 producers is being very selective in
which pharmacies, clinics and hospitals get the Vaccine first.

I have several Doctors offices on my route who complain that they have theirs on order,
and are being told none is available... meanwhile I might have 6000 doses in the back of the truck(but I'm not supposed to tell this doctor where they are going, so he can tell his clients) I understand that.

Keep in mind the regular seasonal flu kills many more people yearly worldwide than this H1N1 flu has in the past year.

I've never had the flu and have never had a shot... its not a coincidence... placing blind trust in what some company injects in you is kinda scary especially if you are not sick to begin with.
