How much do you wanna bet even getting rid of it is ridiculously costly, or will wind up being? :oops:

The government wasted several hundred million pounds of public money? No! I won't believe it! :lol:

The states in Germany are looking to half their order from 50M to 25M shots, but some will still have to pay, because they didn't include a cancellation clause! :roll:

Hey, I remember swine flu. It was going to kill us all, wasn't it?

*shakes head sadly*

I also remember bird flu - weren't we all supposed to have been killed by that, too?

We were all going to be irradiated to death through the hole in the ozone layer first. Those of us that weren't already reduced to dribbling vegetables by CJD, anyway.

That's assuming you hadn't run out of oxygen with the destruction of the rain forest beforehand of course ;)

Maybe we can burn some of the vaccine to keep us all from freezing in all this snow.

I shouldn't complain, those vaccines help pay may salary

They should put it on the roads to melt the ice, as it's no doubt just saline solution.

Swine flu, what a load of pigs h i t that turned out to be.

And of course, not forgetting H5N1 (Bird Flu) and before that...the deadly threat of SARS!

I know a few people who've had the vaccine. They were all ill for a few days afterwards. As it's not a live vaccine I didn't think that was supposed to happen. We're not giving it to our son, I'm not making him ill for the fun of it..

I was in Hong Kong when that broke out. Stupid woman had a face mask on in the big empty open airport, but then took it off when she was on the flight which was choca-blocked. :roll:

[LIFTED] like that Donaldson, sexed up the threat, knowing the sheeple would react, classic, problem, reaction, solution, which in the end has made Labour look worse, but its done its original aim, to make Big Pharma loads of cash and the MP's and Media who spread the lies get their cut, that's how it works. Pharma firms are losing millions through Chinese Generics and Counterfeits, they needed something to boost profits, and its well documented.

To make the problem worse, it turned out something like only 1 in 20 people who reckoned they had it, actually did, and knowing how it needed to be confirmed in a lab, i'd say even that was a gross exaggeration.

Everywhere I went, people were saying, oh I had Swine Flu, get boring in the end.
