I just watched an infectious disease expert from the NIH state how carefully the CDC is tracking the swine flu.  In real time even!

I would have loved to ask him, "Really, how can they do that if we're not even testing people anymore?  How can those "real-time" numbers then be accurate?"  Sometimes I just really want to jump through the tv!!  Anyone else with me?  LOL!

Oh yes, I'm on my way to the Fox News website to let them have it. I expect lies from other news stations, but what Fox reports is usually checked out and found to be the truth. However, this morning they had this doctor telling everyone how badly pregnant women need the H1N1. I love how they don't bother to mention the fact that even the manufacturer states (in the package insert) that no testing has been done and they don't know how safe the shot is for the fetus/baby (whichever you prefer). That's not what made me mad though, I've heard that one over and over already.

He followed it up with telling everyone that the baby will have long lasting immunity if the Mom gets the shot. Now how the he!! does he figure this? I'm so sick of all these lies. This shot was released to the public only recently, they don't know a thing about the outcome, how it will effect a baby or anything at all about safety. Basing their LIES on other flu shots is just too ridiculous for my taste, but I'm sure the dumbed-down people of this country won't have any trouble buying it.

Sadly, I got an email earlier about a lady who was having a c-section to remove her baby who died right after the flu shot.

Yeah, it was a coincidence alright! Those seem to occur in big freakin' numbers these days!!!

Oh, that is so sad~  They already are dismissing those kinds of stories being related to the flu shot.  Saying women miscarry everyday, people get GB everyday, etc.  I think that story was on FoxNews as well.  GRRRRR!

That's where I heard it, FoxNews. I was rushing out the door for church, I backed it up and listenedd twice, because I could not believe what I was hearing!
