Actually, there is a centralized mechanism for getting this vaccine. I am a Pediatrician, and I believe the only way to get the vaccine is through the CDC. They are in charge of allocating and distributing it. web page: http://www.cdc.gov/H1N1flu/vaccination/statelocal/centralized_distribution_qa.htm Also, according to this article in Forbes, http://www.forbes.com/2009/10/27/swine-flu-vaccine-lifestyle-health-h1n1-shortage.html, NY state has the fewest doses available in the country. AND, the government is providing it free. In my county, the only places to get it are the Public health department, and the 2 big health systems, Kaiser and Sutter. So, if GS has it, it is because the government wanted them to have it. I guess Goldman Sachs traders are very, very special.
This is what Sarah Palin was talking about with the death panels... government insiders [donors] get the meds, the "little people" die... Imagine what would happen to Red States if BO Pelosi and Company was metering out the life saving doses of ANYTHING...
Vaccine-autism proven "The scientific proof of vaccine autism has been around for some time but kept from the public by the industry controlled media who trumpet the smokescreen of junk science epidemiology studies that have all been shredded numerous times (helped by Study data kept secret, Autism and genetics, change in diagnosis). Plus the studies done by Dan Olmsted, Donald Meserlian & Generation Rescue, while the thousands of parent anecdotes are ignored for obvious reasons." http://www.whale.to/vaccine/vaccine_autism_proven.html
This is just a sign of things to come. When resources are scare, they will be allocated to the rich elite first. Wether it be shortages of vaccines, food, gasoline, consumer non durables, etc. Everyone else will be left to fend for themselves.
You realize fish can have up to 1 ppm mercury? So 25mcg of mercury is like eating half a tuna sandwich.
This is not at all what Palin and other Republicans were talking about when they were criticizing the proposed funding for Medicare "death panels".
Vitamin D and other stuff on the crackpot web sites won't make you immune to the flu. If you breathe in enough of it, you will get it.
