"FDA approves new swine flu vaccine" by Associated Press | September 16, 2009
Just one more reason not to take it.
WASHINGTON - The Food and Drug Administration approved the new swine flu vaccine yesterday, a long-anticipated step as the government works to get vaccinations underway next month.

FDA Approval to Immunize Drug Companies From Lawsuits
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced the vaccine’s approval to Congress, and said she hopes to get the first limited supplies distributed early next month.
The bulk of the vaccine will start arriving Oct. 15, and Sebelius said it should be available at 90,000 sites around the country. “We will have enough vaccine available for everyone’’ eventually, Sebelius said - everyone who wants it, that is....
Leave me out. Drug Cos made their dough though, huh?

FDA licensure means that the government has certified the vaccine is made properly and meets specific manufacturing and quality standards.
Pffft! WHO TRUSTS this government anymore?
Reason number 3,278 NOT to take a shot!
Separately, the National Institutes of Health is studying the vaccine dosage and safety. Last week, the NIH announced that one dose appears to protect adults, and that the protection kicks in eight to 10 days after the shot.
Yeah, so if you get infected and poisoned by the shot, you "caught" the flu before you go protection, right.
See them backpedaling already? They wanted to get two shots into you, now they only say one. The blogs had to have had an effect.
Studies in children and pregnant women are continuing.
Continuing? They are ALREADY INJECTING PEOPLE!!!
Please, please, please, REJECT the SHOT, mommies!
The vaccine approved yesterday is made by CSL Ltd. of Australia; Switzerland’s
Now you know WHOSE CASH REGISTERS are RINGING!!!!
--more--"
I mean, we must have had an effect seeing as the BG front-paged this to calm everyone down.
Don't worry, I don't believe them, but they were forced to respond.
"In public health bill, a contagion of fear; State rebuts talk of forced injections" by Stephen Smith, Globe Staff | September 17, 2009
.... The updated legislation, passed by the Senate in late April and awaiting action in the House, carries penalties for certain violations: People who refuse orders to remain isolated could face up to a month in jail and fines as high as $1,000 a day.
Yeah, the TYRANNY is in the BILL, but DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY, Bay-Stater!
Yeah, the GOVERNMENT would NEVER LIE or HARM YOU, right? RIGHT?
I'll tell you what, state: YOU NEED NOT WORRY about ME ISOLATING MYSELF, 'kay? So DON'T COME HERE!!!!!!
But the proposed law also would, in certain instances, provide a check on the power of health officials. For example, a judge’s approval would now be needed before a government agency could perform tests or a physical examination on someone thought to present a significant medical risk to the community....
Oh, BIG WHOOP, a JUDGE will decide after the STATE PRESSURES HIM!
Some "protection."
A team led by Lawrence O. Gostin, a Georgetown University law professor, drafted the language that has served as a model for Massachusetts’ proposed law and for revised rules adopted in 37 states so far....
Oh, so it is a NATIONWIDE THING, huh?
Yup, Massachushitts was once again a trailblazer, yay!
The terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and the arrival of anthrax-laced letters at congressional and media offices a month later revealed a largely ignored truth about public health emergency regulations: In many states, they had not been updated for decades....
Gee, and CUI BONO, huh?
ANOTHER "BENEFIT" of 9/11, 'ey, America?
When are you going to WAKE UP to the FALSE FLAG and RESULTING TYRANNY, huh?
Okay, now the SLAM JOB by the AGENDA-PUSHING MSM!
You know, if there is NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, then I WILL HOLD YOU TO YOUR WORD, lying, agenda-pushing MSM!
The banner, bold and provocative, was tattooed with a syringe, skull and crossbones, and a call to action: “Say no to forced vaccination.’’
The message, delivered last week on Beacon Hill, was aimed at a seemingly prosaic piece of legislation that aims to better define - and, in some respects, restrict - the emergency powers of the state’s public health officials.
Pfft! This is why NO ONE TRUSTS YOU ANYMORE, "newspaper!"
Within the bill’s arcane language, a 16-month-old activist coalition sees government authority run amok: mandated vaccinations, quarantines, arrests, fines. Swine flu, they warn, will be the virus that opens the door to the public health police.
Yeah, take a look at some of the Must View sites I have.
And SINCE WHEN is MASSACHUSETTS DEMOCRACY an "arcane" exercise, huh?

Oh.
“We have a concern that we will be forced to be quarantined if we refuse the vaccine,’’ said Laura Jackson, president of the Liberty Preservation Association of Massachusetts, which mustered 30 to 40 members for the lobbying drive. “What I’d like to see done with this law is have it burned.’’
Those concerns, public health authorities insist, are entirely unfounded.
BETTER BE if YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
STAY AWAY FROM HERE!!!!!!!!!
But the association’s multimedia campaign - aired over talk radio and its website - compelled state Public Health Commissioner John Auerbach to send an italicized, bold-faced missive to legislators, stressing that “mandatory vaccination is not and has never been part of the plan or discussion in Massachusetts’ pandemic response.’’
BULL-PUCKEY!!!!!
Of course, one can THROW BLOGS in there as well, thank you!!!
Would the Globe even be addressing this (on the front page, no less) if we WERE NOT having an EFFECT?
The bill, Auerbach and other top officials said in interviews, would never force anyone to be vaccinated unwillingly, and its extraordinary measures - such as quarantining people who decline inoculations - would be reserved for equally extraordinary times, such as a bioterror attack or the emergence of a highly lethal, rapidly spreading germ.
I'm surprised there was no BUT there.
Swine flu, caused by the H1N1 virus, is not such a germ, Auerbach said.
Really?

The lying is not engendering confidence in your statements, sir.
The protest by the group, whose founders supported Republican Ron Paul in the 2008 presidential election, reached its pitch at an especially delicate moment for public health authorities.
Oh, yup, just a bunch of crazies, right, Globe? Pfft!
The TRUE PATRIOTS of AmeriKa!!!!!!
Auerbach’s letter demonstrates that his agency is worried the dissent could raise doubts about vaccination and imperil an unprecedented campaign to inoculate millions this fall against the seasonal flu and the swine strain....
Oh, DID WE EVER have a HUGE EFFECT, fellow bloggers!!!!!!!
See how they want to PROTECT THEIR DEPOPULATION PLAN?!!!!
EITHER WAY, cash registers are ringing at the pharmaceuticals!
In the opposition to Massachusetts’ revised public health emergency law, as well as in the combustible health care town hall meetings that greeted some members of Congress this summer, analysts see more than traditional conservative concerns about individual liberty and big government.
THIS is as violent as I get, assholes, so FUCK OFF!!!!!!
They also find signs of deeper worries about a world descending into uncertainty, with panic over economics and the emergence of a novel flu strain.
“.... We’ve seen a rise in emotionalism replacing logic,’’ said Gene W. Matthews, a senior fellow at the University of North Carolina’s Institute for Public Health....
Oh, like OVER 9/11 and the WAR-MONGERING when BUILDINGS CAN'T, DON'T, and WOULDN'T FALL DOWN THAT WAY because of FIRE?
That the kind of "emotionalism" you talking 'bout?
--more--"
You know, at this point, it is the "NEWSPAPERS" who have to prove THEY are not CRAZY, 'kay?
In any event, they are LIARS and NOT TO BE BELIEVED!!!!!!!!
Which is why YOU and I are HERE, reader!
I think we got to them, folks (unless it is a deceptive deke by government and MSM, not out of the question at all):
"Seasonal flu vaccine delivery delayed" by Stephen Smith, Globe Staff | September 18, 2009
What, they want to release a mutation and kill a bunch of us first?
Shipments of vaccine against seasonal influenza are arriving slower than expected in Massachusetts, a delay that is likely to cause some inoculation drives to be postponed.
Or SCRAPPED, who knows? Of course, someone made $$$.
I never took a shot all those years, and I never got flu (knock wood).
Meanwhile, the people in the offices and factories that did got sick!
The state Department of Public Health this week issued an alert to doctors, urging them to hold off on large vaccination campaigns at public clinics and schools for about a month.
I will STAY VIGILANT, readers, I promise!
As a result, doctors and nurses may wind up dispensing vaccine against both seasonal flu and the swine strain at the same time....
Yup, they are CONTORTING and MOVING, TWISTING and BENDING to GET THAT NEEDLE IN YOU!! What IS IN that damn thing, anyway?
Massachusetts, one of the biggest government buyers of flu vaccine in the nation, had placed orders for 880,000 seasonal flu doses. So far, the state has distributed close to 400,000 doses to doctors and clinics, and 100,000 more are expected in about a week, said John Auerbach, state commissioner of public health.
Yup, TAXPAYERS TAKING ANOTHER BATH, I see, CHA-ching!!!
Manufacturers expect to produce enough seasonal flu vaccine for everyone who wants it - just not as soon as forecast.
No thanks. I remember 1976.
Health authorities had banked on most of the vaccine being available by the end of this month; now, that’s being pushed back to late October or early November.
I'm sorry, but I HAVE TO BELIEVE the YELLING and SCREAMING from BLOGS is HELPING HERE! Or they want to kill a bunch of us before and after.
In part, it reflects an unexpected scientific challenge. The seasonal vaccine is brewed to thwart three different strains, and one of them - from the “B’’ family - proved especially difficult to work with.
And THERE is your "MUTATION," right?
In part, it reflects the frenzy of activity at vaccine manufacturers, which , in addition to making seasonal vaccine, are churning out nearly 200 million doses against the H1N1 virus that causes swine flu....
CHA-ching!!! CHA-ching!!! CHA-ching!!!
After swine flu emerged in the United States in late April, federal disease specialists and pharmaceutical companies embarked on an unprecedented sprint to develop a vaccine to slow the spread of the H1N1 virus. At the same time, companies were asked to expedite their production of seasonal shots so that factory lines would be available for swine flu vaccine.
Shipments of the seasonal vaccine began earlier than ever, and shot kiosks opened earlier than before in drugstores, airports, and neighborhood clinics....
Yeah, I saw the signs at the Walgreens; I didn't go in.
Knowing that swine flu vaccine was expected to start rolling into medical offices in mid-October, public health authorities had hoped to dispense as many seasonal doses as possible before then. But the urgency of that dimmed a bit when clinical trials surprisingly showed adults may need only a single dose of the swine flu vaccine, instead of two as originally thought.
Now, Auerbach said, people may need only a single visit for vaccination against seasonal and swine flu. In most cases, there’s no reason why someone can’t receive both at the same time.
Look at them do the Michael Jackson moonwalk.
“That makes it easier for the clients, and it may make it easier for the local health departments as well,’’ Auerbach said. “The same nurse can be doing twice as much work in the same amount of time.’’
That's scary talk there.
Of course, some need not worry; they just want to break your heart and leave the feeble and infirmed to be the "energy" of the revolt.
"Seniors largely spared of swine flu threat" by Matt Sedensky, Associated Press | September 18, 2009
MIAMI - Seniors who for years have made flu shots a fall ritual are being sent to the end of the line for the swine flu vaccine. And the reason - their age group seems to have a bit of immunity - appears to have warded off most potential grumbling....
I don't hear any grumbling over at the Senior Center about it; more likely the state or Medicare.
