No H1n1 shots left for my kids

Post by adam »

No shots left for my kids- who is to blame ??

And Oboma wants to run the health care system- he can't even get enough shot ready, they had plenty of time to plan for this situation

Go ahead and blame W

Everybody knew that vaccine was going to be tough to come by. I can't get it for my kids either. Hell, my kid's pediatrician didn't even have any regular flu vaccine a couple of weeks ago. She said out of her office's 1000 or so patients she only got 60 (yes, 60) doses of H1N1. No idea who's to blame for that one though. It was common knowledge last spring that a serious outbreak would be here this fall and winter. I agree, the feds should have had ample time. I'd like to hear the reasoning for the shortage. People are dying from that shit.

I like how we went from potentially MANDATORY vaccinations to not having enough even for children.

Good thing I don't leave the house!

Why would you want Mr Obama to supply you with flu drugs?

Are you some kind of Socialist?

I think making this a partisan issue is just wrong. It isn't a partisan issue. It probably isn't even a failing on the part of government. It probably has more to do with the science, but I'd really like to hear a definitive answer as to why it's so tough to come by. It's starting to get rampant where I live. Both of my bass player's kids have had it, one of them was hospitalized. They're both gonna be fine thank God, but it's a little disconcerting seeing it that close to home and knowing there's a vaccine for it that I can't get for my own kids.

I agree. This is a capitalist country, and the free market should be able to sort out who gets their flu shots.

I'm so sick of these commies.

I had to sit in an ER waiting room for an hour the other night, amongst the absolute dreck of society. I figured I'd walk out of that place with the swine flu, AIDS, avian bird flu, polio, and scurvy.

I was one of those tools with a surgical mask on.

"A huge portion of the supply disappeared when British regulators found that flu vaccine made at a plant operated by Chiron Corp. in Liverpool, England, had been contaminated with bacteria. How this mistake happened no one seems to know — or at least no one is saying. What is clear is that 48 million doses of flu vaccine that were due to come to the United States are not going to make it to our clinics, hospitals and doctors' offices for distribution."

I'm wondering if the guy sitting next to you caught a bad case of confusion, political indecisiveness, & voter remorse?

Waddaya think, Jake? :lol:

I read another article that said something about the cultures being much harder to grow than they'd anticipated. Maybe it's a vast conspiracy.

Don't worry Jake, I don't think it's contagious, unless you listen to Beck Rush etc. a lot that is. Apparently that causes some kind of psychotropic reaction guaranteed to turn sane people into raving lunatics.

Oh yeah, one of my favorite insults to be thrown at me is that I parrot Rush, O'Reill, etc.

I've literally NEVER heard an O'Reilly program and I think I caught Rush once on Sirius.

And I watch CNN!

I do see Beck on when I'm at the gym so I'll watch his schtick from time to time, but it's more for entertainment purposes than anything else.

I was kidding man. I really couldn't tell you whether you or anybody else is parroting those guys because, I don't listen to them myself. To be honest, most of the stuff I hear from them is found in threads and links here. I understand your voter's remorse pertaining to Obama though. You certainly aren't alone there.

I guess Obama isn't socialist enough, eh?

We don't need health care reform, but where's my vaccine?

They're giving H1N1 shots to Guantanamo detainees.

Going to be pretty fucked if they're sending vaccines down there before every American who wants it can get it.

Forgive me, as I hail from a land of socialised medicine, but I don't understand something.

Over here we have a shortage too, but I guess we can blame the government on this one because they are ultimately responsible for the operational capacity of the National Health Service. The NHS is entirely accountable to government, ergo we moan at government.

However, in a land where health is almost entirely privatised, we now have this twat adam moaning because he can't get flu vaccines for his family? Well, Mr. Capitalism, with your thriving landscaping business I thought you'd be paying top dollar for a wicked cool health plan that provides H1N1 vaccines in three different flavours - stawberry, banana or choca-mocha. Correct me if I'm wrong but if your health is in the hands of private enterprise, you should be blaming private enterprise for their lack of foresight and inability to source sufficient amounts of the flu vaccine in a timely fashion.

Or am I missing something?

It's funny when people who hate the government bitch about the government not handing them everything. ESPECIALLY when it's not even the fault of the government but rather, the private sector they're so adamant about protecting.
