Flu shots make people sick.
These pharmaceutical companies are going to end up starting a pandemic.

Ok people, obviously you have no idea how flu shots work.
Whether this child had a flu shot or not is completely irrelevant. Flu shots are designed on the up and coming flus for that year, depending on what the gentic combination is.
If this is a rare flu that hasn't been seen since 2007, then no, the baby isn't vaccinated against it, since it is not the rampant flu virus of the year.
So you can get the flu that you have not had the shot for. Which is why they promote the shot every year because then you can start an artillary against the many strains of the flu.
If a flu strain contains one of the genetic components of a flu you have been previously been vaccinated for, then you have partial protection.
People have partial protection if they received the H1N1 vaccine because one of the flus that is not rampant but on the radar has some genetic components of H1N1. But it also has components of another flu, therefore you only get partial protection.
The current flu shot does not protect you against the H1N2 virus. But the Minnesota Department of Health says they do not think this strain of H1N2 is a serious threat, because the infant recovered quickly and no one around him got sick — suggesting it does not spread easily.

I've found something in the article that may reduce the fear:

Merry Christmas.

Only two people have ever been detected as contracting this flu ever. What the MSM fails to report in this link is whether or not these two unfortunate souls were administered the flu vaccine.
