Mikes10 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 A several years ago I had the flu jab and it floored me, I swore never again. A few years ago there was a scare about swine flu, the way the media was going on about it people should have been dropping like flies but they weren't. I can't help but suspect someone is conning someone else and getting a tidy little income from it. Who is doing the conning and who is being conned I cannot decide. However, if I get the flu and die from the infection you all will know I was wrong with my initial suspicion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizabeth_RB Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Why have you ressurected a three year old thread??? Did I? Well, it hasn't actually hurt anyone, has it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First they spread viruses and then they sell us the cure or most times a false cure that doesn't work. its called Problem, Reaction, Solution.... with the help of the media they can make million and even billions on drugs by spreading fear around the world, you cant deny you all saw what happen in 2009 swine flu hoax.

Tess Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Oh god, is it that time of the year again? Call me mad but i'd rather have a gum injection than one in my arm, it hurts much less. Suppose ill be reluctantly calling the doctors later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joanl Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 But the 'new' OP wrote as though she was joining in a discussion that took place 3 years ago... Ye Gods! Some of the posters aren't even still active! Some may well be dead! You just write a new thread if you want your subject back on the map... But the OP did what they are supposed to do, didn't they? When you come to start a new thread, you are prompted to see if there is already a thread on a similar subject........and yes, there may be some in that first section that are no longer with us for whatever reasons but, that happens sometimes.There will be some that have only joined the forum more recently as well. There will also be people that are thinking of having the jab for the first time and will be interested in reading of other peoples experiences.

medusa Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Had mine again last week. No bad affects, can't even pinpoint where the needle went in..... I had mine last week and spent a couple of days with a sore spot on my leg (I have injections in my leg rather than my arm by choice) and I didn't make that any better by sitting down with my phone in my pocket and digging the corner in to the injection site, but I'm less than a week afterwards and it's all fine now I've only ever had real flu once and it took 6 months to get my asthma stabilised properly afterwards, so I don't plan on having it again.

Come on then Dabinkle, what did happen in 2009? How was the initial outbreak and subsequent pandemic handled and how do you think it should have been handled? Please feel free to use the previous 1918 H1N1 pandemic as a reference point. jb ETA: It may be best if you start in a new thread as you will undoubtedly ruin this one.

dilwise Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Hello. The only reason you feel ill after having the jab is because you were already incubating a virus. The flu incubates for a period of time before you feel the effects so the jab would not make you have the flu as it is a dead vacine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I have an appointment at the Quack's tomorrow for the jab... Hope I don't have any after effects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickiethecat Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I've heard stories that people who have the flu jab subsequently start reading the Daily Mail and agreeing with everything in it. Just be careful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
