Some people would say it is survival of the fitest, but survival of the fatest wallet is more like it. I think it's a shame that it's about the all mighty dollar, but what's new in the USA. I still think if the average Joe (like myself) wants to help fight infection, he/she needs to take 1000 mg vitamin C and 400 mg plus of echinacea. I haven't been down and out with a cold more than a day since I started that routine.

Did you guys hear about how Wall Street was given preferential treatment in getting H1N1 vaccines? This is a prime example of how flawed our healthcare system is when money is the determining factor, not need.

Good Call.


Although the number one age group impacted by H1N1 is 23 and under, the elderly definitely need safe guards in place to protect them. Caregivers can't be too careful.

I think since the this H1N1 is so rampant that making folks get the vaccine is fair.  I will get it when it becomes available because i work with Geriatric residents and would not want to spread it to them.

Is your healthcare facility requiring that all employees be vaccinated for the H1N1 "Swine Flu"? If so, do you feel this is a violation of your rights?


 


For those whose employer isn't making the vaccinations mandatory, do you wish the vaccinations were mandatory?
