Re: OT: Egg allergy and other sensitvities and the flu vaccine

[Guest guest]

I am completely blown away by all this flu prevention recommendations as if they

were just invented.

Washing hands, covering mouth when coughing/sneezing, staying home when

sick...WHERE THE HELL WERE THE PARENTS? when kids were growing up to teach them

this.? These are no-brainers.? I am sure even a chimp can be taught to cover

their mouth when coughing/sneezing.

Didn't teachersx in health class also teach this?? It was drilled into our heads

all throughout k-12.

Maybe even under the generic caption of COMMON COURTESY???????????????

[] OT: Egg allergy and other sensitvities and the flu

vaccine

People with egg allergy should be careful of flu vaccines, swine flu and regular

flu vaccines:

I was looking for link on egg allergy to share- first link in post. Second

link came up because it mentioned egg in it, but thought perhaps there might be

something in there worthwhile. I only read half of it. I guess there is only

so much you can do to avoid. I think go into crowds less often. You can carry

those wipes if you carry a purse and wipe off store carts, etc. It was pretty

lame though.

You're living a very privileged life. You have an education,

where as 90% of the rest of the world does not. So, this

reading material covers those teaching the poor.

You're also privileged to live in a very dirty first world country

that does not care about the health of the individual, anymore.

Go figure.
