05/04/2009: "Swine-flu scare: Caution from '76 vaccine"

When Scott Heath stepped onto a parked public bus in 1976 for a free swine-flu shot, he considered himself "civic- minded": doing his part to help the country avoid a pandemic.

It was a decision he believes nearly killed him. Within days, the Denver man was mute and paralyzed, an extreme reaction to a vaccine that critics said was rushed by the federal government to calm fears of a massive flu outbreak.

President Gerald Ford's $135 million inoculation program resulted in the vaccinations of 45 million Americans in the fall of 1976 before it was abandoned, linked - fairly or not - to about 500 cases of neurological disorder and 25 deaths. Hundreds of people, including Heath, sued the federal government.

Heath, a Harvard-educated graphic designer who was 25 when he was vaccinated in downtown Denver, was awarded $1.2 million in an out-of- court settlement.

I don't know too much about vaccines, and am certainly not a doctor, but I've always scoffed at all this fear over the flu. Swine flu, and I'm like lol, as long as I can still eat bacon, I don't have a worry in the world! And I've never gotten a "flu shot," they are even skeptical that it protects you from the flu, and besides, flu shots are for pussies! I wouldn't be surprised if vaccines are actually anti-evolution, by preserving the weaker kids that would have died in previous ages from diseases, or if BETTER SANITATION was the main cause of disease eradication, which is now being brought back by the Mexishits.
