ATLANTA (Reuters) - U.S. health authorities are turning to social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter in a bid to prepare people to be vaccinated against the pandemic H1N1 virus.

I'm not huge thread starter but I thought this was realavent. It seems TPTB are going to target their propaganda to the social retards amoungst the population.
What better way to get the word out than 'Facebook' or 'Myspace'. People are sure to buy into it if it is the cool hip thing to do.

Before you know it Ashton Kutcher will be Twittering about how cool it is.

LOL. This is going to be one hell of a ride.

P.S. Before anyone gets their panties twisted and their widdle Feewings hurt, I too am ashamed to say, have a myspace account, so I will share in being a social retard.

In my own little way I hope to help the cause. I will advise against getting the Swine flu Vaccination on my 'My Space' account. If EVERYONE did this it sure would help spread awareness. at the expence of making you look like a fruitcake to all of your friends.

Believe it or not my wifes sister who works for a Doctors office is required to get the vaccine in order to keep her job.
My wife who is a R.N. said today that her supervisor told her that vaccines will be coming soon and are as of right now voluntary but are likely to be mandatory soon.

She is scared because as of six months ago she didn't even know what swine flu was when I told her about what was coming. She is standing in awe of me like I am some sort of modern day prophet or something. I keep telling her what is coming and she is now finally waking up enough to see that I might not be crazy.

Jesus H Christ, the modern day prophet...

- sorry, I had to point out the funny.

You're probably right about the numbers, although unfortunately, as much as I want solomons to be right, that the CDC will fudge the numbers, seeing as not many people have died as of yet (at least ones that weren't misdiagnosed as having s.f. and really has pneumonia)

but then I think of how this virus is predicted to 'mutate' beyond anything we've ever known.

Mutate - IE, they'll be dumping a stronger, deadlier version into the wind to fulfill their incredible, insightful, terrifying prediction.
Least that's how I see it.

Well said.

I look at my situation as a microcosm of the situation we will all be in soon. My wife is thoroughly freaked out now because my fortune telling sessions/conspiracy rants are now coming to fruition. She has a choice now but soon she won't...if she wants to keep her job.

In a time where jobs are impossible to come by you can see why she would be hesitant to give up a perfectly good 70k a year job just to avoid a shot. So, what will probably happen in the end is she will get the shot
and go on with life, however short that may be.

I am on the fence as to what to do myself. If I don't get it I am sure to be "quarrantined" in on of the many "FEMA Disaster Relocation Centers" for the "Protection" of the public.

If I don't take it I will die which, in this current global climate I have to say sounds pretty appealing given what I know is on the other side waiting for me.
