 If its not one thing its another. Now when all the parents flock for vaccines they will say it was all a fluke!

1 mom liked this

 i betchya all the people that contracted it were vaccinated. just like that outbreak that infected americans in new york [highly vaccinated state, right?] and new jersey. i cant remember how many got infected, but 80 or 90% were vaccinated. the kid who started it was 11 and vaccinated twice. the uk had an outbreak of about 1500 people and most of those were also vaccinated, i believe.

What a nice set up for a "pandemic". H1N1 didn't scare enough people, maybe Big Pharma can make up the loss here.

Don't you know the new flu H5N1 think it called or bird flu. Better run for the hills or the corner store for the new vax that will be there. Lmbo. Did they happen to mention if the 4 people where in the same family or not.

I quoted because the measles and this new flu are probably going to be new pandemic of the year. Sorry I did know everything had to be so cut and dry when it comes to answering a post.

I heard that too, and the one thing I DIDN'T  hear was that the folks who got it were dropping dead!  You would think that with such a "deadly" disease going around they would be including a body count!
