Pretty simple question.. Haha Bird "Flue".. can't edit it at this point..


Anyway, I remember people saying others should be forcefully inoculated if they didn't take the vaccine during H1N1.. It was weird.
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

I would've preferred a simple "no" as an option but I suppose "I knew it was bullshit" will do. "I knew the impression pertaining to the risk was substantially exaggerated by the media" would more accurately describe my outlook but I suppose that's too long. Not that anything I'd say would ever be too long.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

BTW, I'm proud to say that I also knew from way back in the 1980s that AIDS would never break out as a major epidemic in the general population in the United States and would, in this country, remain primarily confined to distinct high risk groups (homosexual/bisexual males, IV drug users, and regular female partners of bisexual males and male IV drug users). In that case there was a conscious effort by public health officials to distort the risk picture because they were worried that if people realized it was primarily confined to the referenced high risk groups they wouldn't give a shit.

It's all out there. But in the grand scheme of the overall risk picture most of the "fad" fear things are minor things. Might as well worry about having a plane crash on your house. Yeah, it could happen. But if it does it just wasn't your day.

Without a pandemic the government can't be the "savior"...and You can't have a pandemic without panic AND an epidemic. Even if both are artificially created...
