Bloodshot Scott
I'm too lazy to set a usertitle.
So much for all that hype, eh? I didn't get the vaccination and I was just fine, and I was in public places all winter. Maybe all that vodka keeps my system cleaned out or something eh...
No, and neither did anyone else.
It was a hoax.
I didn't. I knew someone whose kids got it though. Mainly if you have a decent immune system you're ok. It usually effects the children and elderly. A lot like that one disease that was running around a few years ago from mosquitoes. West Nile.
We got the vaccination for free at school. I don't even know anybody who had swine flu though. :wtf: It was all hype and no punch. I was looking forward to it knocking out a significant portion of the poor people in this country. I'm very disappointed...
I thought that was the holocaust... :dunno:
I had it. It was not a hoax.
It was over hyped, that's all. It wasn't so different from the same strand (slightly earlier mutation) that's included every year in the standard flu-shot.
According to the CDC, four thousand Americans died from swine flu and 22 million contracted the disease. And it's not over yet.

I kid you not I went through probably a couple cases of Philips this winter. :shocked: I talked to another kid who got it and he said he "medicated" with vodka and it went away in like a week.
