Are you going to get the swine flu shot ? I think I'll wait and see which kills more.....the flu or the shot.I don't care about doing research and development for a drug company.

Nah. I never get the flu and colds are rare.

I dont let thing like swine flu scare me cause death will come when it comes.

My wifes grandmother is convinced she got
Guillain-Barré Syndrome

as a result of a flu shot in the early 90's she was lucky to survive it and was in the hospital for 6 months and never recovered from it, the stats say 1 in one million this happens too.

She has been in a wheel chair every since, she has limited hand use but can stand to wash dishes etc...

she is now 85 years old, her mind is sharp but her physical condition is sad...

This was a woman who never sat still (like my wife) and is always doing something...

There was a time when it was a live bug used in the vaccine. back then some got sick. It is not anymore, it`s dead so unless you have an egg allergy you can`t get anything from the shot. occasionally people get very mild symptoms while their body builds antibodies.

Thats what the Government tells you but who knows...
Guillain-Barre Syndrome - What is Guillain-Barre Syndrome - GBS

Yeah the odds of GBS or something else going wrong are very long odds that I would probably play all day in poker. With my health, not so much...
