I was attached to a United States Air Force medical squadron in Shreveport, La., in 1976-77. We were ordered to take the experimental H1N1 Swine Flu vaccination, which was all the big scare of that year. Out of 90 people in my section, I alone refused this live-virus vaccination – until threatened with court martial if I did not comply.
One person collapsed and disappeared for two weeks into the hospital, and others were affected to varying degrees. We were lab rats and nothing more. I, luckily, suffered no ill effects except destruction of my attitude, with which I grapple to this day.
This is not a new virus – go to the Centers for Disease Control website and do a search for H1N1. Flu vaccinations now are all killed viruses. They are not alive but will stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies to protect against infection.
Get one – or two, even!
Remember your military: They do more than just fight the bad guy; they are also used for experimentation in secretive and potentially damaging ways to the individual who has no choice but to comply!
