Don't Feel Guilty

A commenter to one of my posts said he felt guilty about receiving a flu shot recently. I've talked to others, my own mother included, who felt the same. My response to them is flat out, "GOOD FOR YOU". You got what you deserved. All Americans should be afforded such protection, but when that protection is limited in quantity the people in "high risk" groups should always be cared for first. Certainly nothing to feel guilty about. It's not your fault the government bungled this, beginning nearly 3 years ago. The rest of us can use our zinc tabs (50 mg/day) and astragalus root capsules (6-8/day). Be well, and stay healthy.

its a big mess up on bush's part. probably from all of the money he allocated to iraq, we have no vaccines. Its not just the influenza vaccine either. 8 out of 12 vaccines for infants were unavailable for some time as well.

Hmm... maybe we need a new president.
