Taking the H1N1 shot is like buying a powerball ticket and the jackpot is Guillain-Barre syndrome.
They asked me the other day if i wanted this shot. THA FUCK? (edit... "they" being my job)
I might not be a doctor, and someone can gladly correct me if this is flawed logic im going off of, but why the fuck would you want to keep subjecting yourself to something that is adept at changing as the flu virus?
The designation on this bitch is H1N1. It is my understanding that this means there is also an H1N2, H1N3, H1Nfucking on and on, H2N1, H3N1, etc etc
Its not like this shot will protect you from any of the other limitless mutations of the flu, so why would you take it and knowingly give yourself a sample of this flu? Why not just take vitamins? OJ?
I know people that get the flu shot every year....... and thats that. They dont get sick any less or more than i do. They are not Wolverine with an adamantium immune system.
Just seems dumb. Its the flu. It kills the old and frail every year, why is a different strain of it treated as a global epidemic?
