I hadn't previously been aware that there was a push back on getting the swine flu vaccination because of the risk of contracting the disease! I really like your sense of sarcasm also.. it made your article a lot more entertaining. I thought this was really interesting.

Her symptoms include not being able to talk unless running, only being able to walk backwards, and only being able to run forwards. I'm trying to understand if this is another gimmick that people are willing to believe because they're uneducated about the issue. It could quite possibly just be an illness that she would have gotten regardless of the vaccine. It is interesting to see what society is willing to believe.
