Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Many Doctors Push Flu Vaccine, Don't Get it Themselves As the United States enters the winter season, it is very likely that a bulk of U.S. citizens haven't gotten the flu vaccination to protect themselves against the influenza virus. According to ABC News, many of those people are the doctors and nurses telling us to get the vaccine in the first place. During the 2006-07 flu season, only 40 percent of health care practitioners got the vaccine. With those kind of statistics, it is understandable why some people are upset that the doctors and nurses taking care of them are susceptible to the same disease. South Africa rewrites medical history. In a major coup for South African medicine, clinical tests on two locally developed HIV vaccines will start in the US next week. http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=1 & click_id=125 & art_id=vn20081129102922802C386423 Pollen disease vaccine??? http://www.researchsea.com/html/article.php/aid/3776/cid/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
