WASHINGTON - Government health officials are mobilizing to launch a massive swine flu vaccination campaign this fall that is unprecedented in its scope — and in the potential for complications.
The campaign aims to vaccinate at least half the country's population within months. Although more people have been inoculated against diseases such as smallpox and polio over a period of years, the United States has never tried to immunize so many so quickly.

This is looking more and more like they are going to make the vaccine mandatory.
Authorities are adamant that vaccination will be voluntary,...
The CDC is formulating a $4.8 million multimedia campaign to encourage people to get vaccinated and help alleviate concerns and confusion, including radio and television public service announcements, print ads, and messages delivered via Twitter, RSS feeds and video podcasts on YouTube.

Let's take the emotional feeling out of the context of our discussion concerning the swine flu vaccine.
Now, lets use or brains. I'm an avid fan of logical reasoning.
Let's look at just a couple of facts.
We have already been told there will not be enough swine flu vaccine to vaccinate every human on earth. How can it be made mandatory?
This virus moves fast and is starting it's second season, without mutating. There seems to be no swine flu season like the normal seasonal flu.
I will take the swine flu vaccine. But adventure is in my blood anyway. There is something very exciting and refreshing to live life on the edge.
It sure seems to me that the ones not wanting the vaccine have turned into sheeple.
The government did an excellent job of creating fear of the vaccine.
Think about it.....when do you become a sheeple?
