SNARK ALERT -- The point of this diary is... dumbasses are spreading the word that the vaccine is EVIL and part of a GUBBERMINT CONSPIRACY. And by doing so, they will ensure that OTHER dumbasses who have the chance to GET the virus... do NOT! Therefore, read at your own risk.
Far be it from me to ascribe Divine Intent when new diseases are discovered. I wouldn’t like to sound like one of the religiofascists who proclaimed HIV/AIDS as "God’s Righteous Judgement Against the Immoral." But still, part of me wonders if there might not be some sort of Eternal Hand at work when it comes to the paranoia about the soon-to-be-available H1N1 vaccine.
It just seems to me that a lot of the people who were marching in Washington to protest the "Indo-Islamic Kenyan Marxist Fascist Commie in the Oval Office" are the same people who think that the H1N1 vaccine will give them rickets, curvature of the spine, nasal pimples and make their babies all autistic and junk. Besides, it’s a government plot to get rid of all the old people. You know... like the death panels? Kill off the Republican voters? Huh? Besides, EVERYBODY knows that the government — in conjunction with their masters at "Big Pharma" — is USING the vaccine to TEST NEW AND DEADLIER VIRUSES! And WHO wants us all to get these vaccines? WHO is RIGHT! The WORLD Health Organization. It’s all part of the "one world government" strategy that nice Mr. Beck is always warning us about.
So, fine! Don’t get the vaccine. It’s your right as an American to subject yourself to the flu if you want to.
Of course, this flu does have a reputation for killing folks. But if you want to take that chance, more power to you.
You realize, of course, that your ignorance puts your kids at risk and that young people have no resistance whatsoever to this virus. But hey, what’s a few dead babies, kids, teenagers and college students? Someone needs to STAND UP against this worldwide government conspiracy. Until they’re too weak from the flu, that is.
And naturally, if you get the flu because you’re too stupid to get a perfectly safe, well-tested and thoroughly vetted flu vaccine, you also are probably too stupid to stay home when you’re sick. After all, that’s what the GOVERNMENT wants you to do, right? So, until the fever gets too high and that painful, wracking cough gets too much to bear and you can’t keep anything down, you’ll probably head on into the office and infect everyone who comes in contact with you along the way. Some of them will have had the flu shot and will be protected, but hopefully there will be a few "patriots" like you who SAW this government death panel poison old-folk-killing flu vaccine conspiracy for what it is... and soon THEY will be sick, TOO!
These are the same folks who consistently vote against their own best interests because Mr. Beck and Mr. Limbaugh and Ms. Malkin and Mr. O’Reilly and the OTHER right wing media millionaires TELL them it’s the AMERICAN thing to do. So, they will GET the flu. They will get sick. Some will die. But isn’t that better than giving in to world wide socialism?
Like I said at the outset... I don’t like to believe that there’s some Divine Will at work here. But still, one wonders if the H1N1 will cull out the dumbasses who will pay for their "sin" of being "too stupid to stay well."
