Poll: Vaccination And You

[Snotnarok]

Not interested in something that I've read to be untested and possibly ineffective. I stopped getting the stupid flu shots since they're useless and I ALWAYS get sick for 2 weeks from them and I've NEVER gotten the flu so why I even bothered I don't know.

What the nelly is swine flu? I thought it was some fictional disease that was - ahem - "popularized" by mass-media.

Okay,in seriousness,why should i get the vaccine? There were very few confirmed cases in Russia,and i'm not even there! Hooray for living in a city with a little international traffic going through it!

I might have considered it if i lived in USA/Great Britain,but there's no point in getting vaccinated here.

Do you honestly live in Kazakhstan?

My best friend got the swine flu this summer. She was hospitalized for two weeks on life support and nearly died.

I'm pretty sure the local VA hospital is offering it for free, so sure, I'll take it. (And they shouldn't have any trouble getting it, since half the population of my state are all "THAT DADGUM FEDRUL GUBMINT'S TRYIN TA POISON US! @#$!ING OBAMA!" Personally, I've long since given up trying to persuade people to get vaccinated or wear motorcycle helmets or use seat belts. Just let natural selection do its job, I say.)

i've already had the swine flu, so i'm immune unless the little bugger mutates. that said, i don't get a flu shot normally, so why the hell would i get this one? all this paranoia is totally bizarre.
