You misread....I know they inject dead virus samples....however, the virus
you are trying to protect against mutates too fast for that to be
efficacious for any period of time.

Katy, the vaccines are a dead virus. Do you have any idea what you're
talking about??
If you had said the inhaled version, then at least you'd have an argument.

No...injecting foreign substances into your body that you do not need is
not a good idea when it comes to viri. They mutate too fast in in ways
that are too complicated to keep up with new technology.

Whatever. The point is that innoculating people agaist the flu is a
very good idea. We normally lose 36K or so people every year to
it. Some people are at higher risk that others, but some flu strains
are deadly to even normally healthy people. We're lucky that this year
is a mild season. What if it had been a bad one, ala 1918, and Bush
had failed to follow up on the advice he was given to do something to
ensure the supply? Instead of a few extra deaths, we might have a few
tens of thousands of extra deaths. Bush did nothing.
