This story is from 2009.  Flu shots SAVE LIVES.  Just about everything, medicine, vaccines, food, etc has the possibility of causing bad side effects.  One has to look at the likelihood of that happening vs. the good effects that come from it and make a decision.  People have died from getting their teeth cleaned -- is anyone going to say that they should not get teeth cleaned because of this?

Throwing out a 2 year old story (without clearly stating that it is that old) about a single person among millions vaccinated borders on fear mongering.

Fear mongering, eh?  I live in America.. I fear everything. LOL

Truthfully, I tried to delete this after I realized there was a follow-up to the story about Desiree, as mentioned by WillyWump. ;)

But food for thought, anyway.
