THIS IS THE CURRENT LAW..Now maybe one of those healthcare supporters can tell me how this is not a form of "thinning out the herd of 65+" which is what the government is not supporting but demanding. There goes grandma..
If you read the information on the H1N1 virus or Swine Flu, the very least susceptible are people over the age of 65. So, being the last to get get it just makes sense. Also, many, many doctors advised not to run out for this vaccine as it has not been fully tested and the side effects are unknown. Some doctors statements I've read said they wouldn't even be letting their children take it.
