Why doesnt the President get a flu shot?

July 30, 2006

I found this interesting... I was in Washington attending the October 5th

influenza/thimerosal vaccine safety hearing of the US House of

Representative appropriations subcommittee on Labor, HHS, Education, and

related agencies when the Chiron Plant closing was announced before the

ubscommittee. Dr. Deth presented his findings to the appropriation

’s subcommittee. Dr. Deth described a biochemical pathway by which

thimerosal and other compounds could cause neuro-developmental disorders

such as autism. Thimerosal did not make the news that day.

FINE FOR THEE, BUT NOT FOR ME

Thanks, Will. Of course it's very important to keep the President healthy.

However, the Centers for Disease Control have recommended that those who are

not at high risk of complication from flu should not be vaccinated, so that

the vaccine can be used for the elderly, young children, and others who need

it the most. The President thinks it is important to lead by example, and so

he's decided not to be vaccinated this year.

I would bet that the twins weren't vaccinated either.

http://tinyurl.com/kv6um skipped the flu vaccine in Oct. 2004, while the

" vulnerable " population throughout this country waited in very long lines to

get their shot of thimerosal. http://tinyurl.com/jv9sm

....or could there be another reason he skipped his flu shot?

Homeland and Lilly Protection Act?

Will his skip the Bird Flu vaccine as well? Isn't it fairly important that

he not get sick? http://tinyurl.com/9g4e3 Tommy did not get his chip...
