PS - Why am I doing this you ask? BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO GET THE DAMNED FLU FROM DIRTY PATIENTS WHO REFUSED TO GET THE VACCINE, and I don't want to bring that crap home to my kids.
Another 15 children died this week from H1N1. Another 15 that would not have died if they had built immunity from the vaccine.
Some of you are just cold-hearted and it makes me sad.
Statistically many of you will get either H1N1 or seasonal flu in the coming months. I hope and pray for a speedy recovery.
The vaccine was my choice. Today is day 8 and there is a 96% chance that I am completely immunce to H1N1 now.
To those of you who wish death, dehydration and sickness upon us that choose to be vaccinated I wish you would look in your heart and reconsider.
The only way to get through this rough time is to work together and help each other.
There is no trickery, malice or reverse-psychology here. This is just my personal experience.
SATURDAY, Oct. 17 (HealthDay News) -- Eleven more U.S. children died from H1N1 swine flu during the past week, a federal health official said Friday, adding that the disease is now so widespread it has surpassed epidemic proportions.
Adding to the seriousness of the situation, manufacturing problems have delayed production of the H1N1 vaccine. Instead of reaching a goal of 40 million doses by the end of October, fewer than 30 million doses will be available, Dr. Anne Schuchat, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, said during an afternoon press conference.
"The delays the manufacturers have will have a substantial impact for the states in their planning efforts. We are seeing more and more vaccine become available -- we wish it were more than it is, but at least we have some," she said.
No problem at all! I always enjoy your posts and especially your writing in the short story thread.
The conspiracy theorist in me is genuinely concerned that so much attention is being given to the vaccine issue that no one is 'watching the henhouse'.
I have terrible fears about what may happen to our country over the next weeks and months. I'm not saying the government has been complacent in spreading paranoia but their too-little, too-late strategy with this vaccine would make an excellent smoke screen to hide what they are doing behind the scenes while nobody is looking.
All I can tell you is that registering multiple ATS accounts is a violation of the terms of service.
If you already have one account and you create another in order to impersonate an additional user ATS staff has been known to terminate all your accounts and ban your IP permanently.
FROM THE PDF: Vaccination with a Live Virus Vaccine: Vaccine recipients or their parents/guardians
should be informed by the health care provider that FluMist is an attenuated live virus
vaccine and has the potential for transmission to immunocompromised household contacts.
Flu is seasonal because in cooler temperatures people tend to spend more time indoors in confined places with other people.
H1N1 vaccine is here and it's really safe! Everyone who dies from the flu didn't get the vaccine!

Such negativity.

I take much comfort in the fact that I can return to the community and take care of flu patients without worry of getting it, and without worry of giving the flu to an immunocompromised patient.
To those of you who wish death, dehydration and sickness upon us that choose to be vaccinated I wish you would look in your heart and reconsider.

Even if I don't agree with you I wish you only good health.
Please reconsider your hurtful words, not for me, but for the families who are losing children to this awful flu.
