You speak in code words "neighbors and friends" W.H.O. might you be talking about? U.N. World Health Organization to seize our nation in time of a pandemic and force that poison upon us with this vax? This is hype.Common Flu kills WAY more people this does not need to even classified as a Pandemic. More like a stomach bug. Unless of course you aren't telling us the truth??

H1N1 is false media

its not deadly as much as you think look at the best evidence the statistics the regular flu kills 200,000 - 500,000 every year the H1N1 Virus killed so far 12,000 people and its been hyped for already 8 months nearly a year and even a close number of deaths like the regular not so feared flu so chill take the vaccine if you want but its still pointless because the virus is changing every few months this pandemic will end and thats it forget about it

i plan to take the alcohol sterilized vaccine only--i am immune compromised and boosting the immune response might be dangerous to chronically immune dysfunction compromised people. confidence as to what we're getting could be critical in getting consent to vaccinate.
