No. How can people post such crap? The link talks about watching the Youtube link to pay attention at 1:40. No where does the reporter talk about being fined $1000/day for refusing the swine flu vaccine.

Stop posting this crap!

Don't blame your own stupidity on other posters irritability. The only person responsible for you failing to grow a brain before posting is YOU.

It's highly doubtful that there will be enough doses of vaccine for everyone in the state.

And 1k per day? Whoever invented this was going for the "big lie" strategy and went too far.

Except the articles are lies. Their source is a video that makes no mention of it.

A bigger concern to me is that they are already shipping the untested vaccine. They are going to test it in the field because they feel the need is too urgent to wait.

It's shipping now?

I think they've started packaging, but nothing's being shipped.

From time.com

What sparked the reports about insufficient testing of the new vaccine was a statement by Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control, confirming that the government has given flu vaccine manufacturers a green light to begin bottling up still-experimental shots and readying them for shipment, even before the final results from the ongoing tests on the vaccine's safety and effectiveness are completed.

Yeah, there is no way that there will be enough H1N1 vaccines in time for the flu season. Also, this flu virus is different than most in that young people appear to be more vulnerable. So, not only do seniors and kids need the vaccine, but people in their 20's and 30's.

What decisions? Whether to believe the shit that you spew on these forums? That article is complete bullshit designed to prove to conservatives that Massachusetts is fucked up.

Between this stupid thread and your one about Toyota benefiting most from CARS, it's clear that you're just a raving idiot.

First shipments arrived at a friends place of work. It wasn't but 24 doses but it proves it is out there.
