Vaccine contains the H1N1 Swine Flu Virus.

For employment in most civilian hospitals (work requirement) and also the military, mandatory to receive. Wouldn't be surprised if certain Federal employees are required to receive it (or lose job).

its not mandatory
never was.

stop listening and believing everything rush says.

Got my flu shot this past month. Glad I did. Even happier to see that I may have some protection against H1N1. Had no realization that there was any immunity to H1N1 - but maybe there is. Maybe it isn't the same strain, though.  People are dropping right and left in Tampa, Manatee counties - some in the low risk groups.

There are vaccines that contain no viruses. They are marketed under the name "Placebo"

And it also contains Thimerosal. All it takes is Martial Law and everyone will be required to take the shots or be sent to one of those FEMA concentration camps.

Interesting- thats not the insert for the Swine Flu, but for the influenza. Didn't realize thimerosal was still being used.

Most vaccines contain a hint of the virus it is treating

That is sort of the whole point, if it doesn't you don't build up an immunity. It is a "live" but harmless version of the virus so you can be up the anti-bodies.

I thought thimerosal was phased out already?

It's still in there. It's like they put an added bonus to the vaccine. I'll stick with my Theraflu thank you very much.

sficarrotta - Morgan has the real information - and it is causing some controversy in hospitals as has been noted on several news sources.

[samsdad]

Kinda funny how right wingers will believe the "Lying Liberal Media" when it suits their views.

Who (in this thread, causing the post in question) said the vaccine was mandatory?

Nobody has said the vaccine is mandatory.  Limbaugh questioned Sebelius' saying that everybody should take the vaccine, not that the vaccine is mandatory.
