The Swine Flu Shot a Waste of Time!

[Kathi]

So those of us with underlying health issues do not consider getting the vaccine a waste of time.

I'm glad you're all healthy. Unfortunately asthma runs in my family and I have it. The adult-onset kind that gets worse as you get older. I've watched my grandmother and my father slowly lose their ability to breathe. And now it's happening to me. So I don't take flu pandemics lightly.

Already got my seasonal flu shot and am waiting for swine flu shot. Fortunately retired and no kids to expose me. My neighbor had swine flu, healthy 40ish male and wife said she had never seen anyone so sick.

As an adult onset asthmatic I don't need to hear it gets worse as you get older. My Dr. said my asthma is more difficult to treat because my triggers are environmental irritants and often don't know what will set me off.

When I was a kid I had the Asian flu, no shots then, and wound up in the hospital with pneunomia. Don't want to repeat that experience.
