Hah, I knew getting any kind of shot was bad news. You never know what they might try out in the "flu shot". Anyway, this sucks for her and I hope she finds a way to get over it.

It'll doubtlessly seem more tragic to some people. News programs and topical programs always pick their subjects carefully. There may be other people out there with this unfortunate condition, but the "attractive active young woman" card is the one most likely to elicit sympathy from the viewers.TheNumber1Zero said:
It's like when I was watching part of Watchdog the other night where they were telling us how evil BT was. All the "victims" were either single mothers, heavily pregnant mothers or parents with young children who were able to cry and look upset on cue, all the better to highlight the immoral actions of the evil corporations. Such is the tabloid nature of these things...
I'm sorry for your inability to tell sarcasm over the internet.dogstile said:

I'm very curious about this. That is, I'm interested in her sudden illness, not in whether or not it was caused by a flu shot (spoiler alert: it wasn't). One interesting link I found is here:

Yeah, what we find out is that she's disabled now, but apparently she can still run 8 kilometers in under an hour. I wonder what that makes me, seeing as I can't run one kilometer without stopping. Also, I couldn't help but find this section amusing:
Jennings says her condition is worsening. ?My neck and tongue are not moving anymore,? Jennings told reporters before the race, according to MyFOXDC. ?They?re paralyzed ? that started yesterday.?
I bet it would be horrible to have a paralyzed tongue. She'll probably lose the ability to eat or drink, she certainly won't be able to speak, she... wait...

I once saw a video of WW1 PTSD. The swine flue triggered her previous life.
That is more believable and credintial than the crap I saw in that video. And doesnt her marriage video make her and the husband look black? I thought the vaccine changed her skin color for a second.

It's too... convenient. A cheerleader turns into a jittery thing, but can still run and walk backwards? and that little walk of hers looked terribly put on. I got first call on this: in a few months she'll have "miraculously" overcome it and the ensuing popularity gets her a cheerleading career.
My dear, that is probably the greatest statement made in this thread. NONE of us overseas have heard of this. If it was linked to the vaccine it would be worldwide, vaccines would stop being distributed etc. This proves one thing: American doctors know jack shit. In England we don't take this bullshit. The worst our national health service has seen is biscuit related injuries.Tanwenna said:
