Athlete's jump H1N1 vaccination line

Remembrance Day November 11 is a day to celebrate the sacrifices made by our military men and women so that we may all enjoy the life that we have. Selfless sacrifice; where a man would throw himself on a grenade so his fellow soldiers may live, with no thought to himself, a hero.
Think back to events like 911 and how many first responders went into the towers knowing that they might not come out alive, or how many times we hear of ordinary citizens putting themselves in the way of great harm to save a life.

With H1N1 the UGLY TRUTH has emerged that not everyone is selfless or the stuff that heroes are made of. Jumping in front of the line by the athletes and others implies that they are special, a higher order and more valuable to society than the rest. I would like to hear them explain their preferential treatment to a soldier who is fighting in Afghanistan and perhaps has a pregnant wife and young children back home, explain why a high priced athlete deserves a vaccination before they do.

Our government has completely blotched the H1N1 vaccination and has put the citizens in danger along with showing that although we are all created equal, some due to position, wealth and contacts are more equal then the rest of us.

A hero (heroine in female) (Ancient Greek: ἥρως, hērōs), in Greek mythology and folklore, was originally a demigod, their cult being one of the most distinctive features of ancient Greek religion.[1] Later, hero (male) and heroine (female) came to refer to characters who, in the face of danger and adversity or from a position of weakness, display courage and the will for self sacrifice that is, heroism for some greater good, originally of martial courage or excellence but extended to more general moral excellence.

Hospital directors and professional athletes are jumping ahead of six-year-olds to get their H5N1 flu shots, Health Minister Deb Matthews says.

"I'm sure that all pregnant players of the Raptors and the Maple Leafs have received their vaccinations, as have all under age five," Matthews said sarcastically when asked if the players might fit into one of the six priority groups for vaccination.

Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto has admitted its board of governor members was offered the shot Oct. 26. The Mount Sinai board, which includes several high-profile business leaders and former politicians, got special treatment. Dr. Donald Low, Mount Sinai's chief microbiologist said, In hindsight, it was the wrong thing to do." "I mean, it was a mistake. You thought you were doing the best thing at the time, and then you find out you weren't."

Imagine this, the mercury and other junk is being injected directly into your blood stream. Very different than when eating a can of Tuna with mecury! This is going straight to your muscle tissue. Good luck dudes - lots of future deaths due to Cancer and God knows what else these pollutants can do to you!
