Spent four days in the hospital wondering if this was it for my old a$$ It took another three weeks before I began too feel normal again. Well as normal as it gets for me. Oh BTW I'm 55+ I should add I live in the middle TN area.

The only time I remember getting the Flu was when I took a vaccine to get into school here in the US. The reaction I had to the vaccine was almost immediate. You're still young George and I'll bet it was just the Flu.

So basically they're saying the vaccines lost its strength from sitting on the shelf. That shows me that a lot of people are not falling for this trap. Now the other concern comes up, what will they do to make the vaccines last longer on the shelf?

Thanks lutac, I don't feel old, I think this hobby helps keep me young at heart. I also think you are correct that this H1N1 is just allot of media driven hype that allows the drug companies to acquire huge government contracts and dump their worthless meds on the unsuspecting public.
Just my .02 worth, georgec
