Negative, Negative, Negative. I don’t have kids, but even if I did NO WAY. I will not be recieveing it either. How many times has a new product been the move “this product will cure arthritus, rls, headaches,astham,stupidness” came all over tv, and been taken country wide? only for 3 - 4 years down the road to see a commercial like this "if you or a loved one has taken (long ass list of shit that the fda fucked up while testing) and DIED you may be entitled to eleventybilliondollars? No thanks, until we get some shit thats tested for a decade without sideeffects that are worse than what its treating, I’m good. Ive got hand sanitizer everywhere. ---

Also imho the people who are “forced” to get it are guinney pigs like the navy use to be. Ask any navy person from 20 years ago who you know if they ever had to get something. I was just talking to a neighbor who is x navy about how they would use boats full of navy personal as lab rats for contained controlled testing. ---

> [@Just Karter](#): > > Also imho the people who are “forced” to get it are guinney pigs like the navy use to be. we’re forced (dr’s and people with direct patient contact) to get the seasonal flu vaccine because in contained areas such as hospitals it can spread like wildfire. not only is it meant to protect us from infected patients, but it prevents spread within the hospital, and from an infected worker to patients (who most likely are already immunocompromised), so its not a guinea pig thing, believe me there are other dept’s in hospitals that do actual testing, and they use real guinea pigs/mice/dogs or whatever animal is required ---

the whole thing makes me a bit unsettled… Last thing i really took note of about the h1n1 is that it had died down, but is expected to come back with an unknown amount of vengeance. It seems like they are vaccinating for something that they really don’t know very much about, with a vaccine that hasn’t really been tested… so, i don’t have children, but if i did, the answer would be no. ---
