How about that health care...
 
"A poll released Friday by the Harvard School of Public Health found
that two-thirds of parents and high-risk adults who want H1N1
vaccinations for themselves or their families have been unable to get
it. It's incredibly frustrating to be doing what we think we're
supposed to be doing -- taking responsibility for our health and
following government exhortations to get ourselves vaccinated -- only
to have our efforts thwarted by lack of supply.

But to me the most unsettling aspect of the whole mess is that nobody
seems to be in charge. The right hand has no idea what the left hand
is doing, and straight answers are hard to come by."

Heh - what a shock.

Must be Obama's lack of control of the companies who make the vaccine...
well, that can be fixed....

Uh......if you'd have watched the news last night, you'd know that the
one SINGLE manufacturer is WAY behind. Has absolutely nothing to do
with government.

Look at it as a preview of the government run, rationed healthcare
that's coming.

Everything will be fine...

I was referring to the diversion of the vacine, not how many make the stuff.

There was no diversion. The vaccine was distributed to high risk groups.
Some of that group works at banks and such. It's certainly being
investigated and if it's shown not to be the case, we'll likely hear about
it.
