So over the weekend, I stood in line along with hundreds of fellow Angelenos, and waited almost two hours to receive my H1N1 vaccination. Before receiving the shot, I did my fair share of research...on the Internet of course, which actually caused more disturbing thoughts on misleading propaganda and the end of the world..not what I wanted to see.
To make it worse, after I already received the vaccination, Mr. R talked about the movie, "Invasion", with Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig, where the aliens were administering deadly vaccinations to kill off the human race. I then thought of the hundreds of zombie movies, where everything sprouted from a horrific pandemic.....uh oh what did I get myself into?..
From the many opinions I read online, it looks like many are actually against the vaccination, and are very wary of its long-term effects. From the scare that the media is throwing at us, combined with the propaganda you see everywhere urging people to be hygienic and get vaccinated (even a Clorox commercial said to get the flu shot!), it doesn't come to a surprise, that many are skeptical. Some people just don't believe any good thing comes without a cost....
Some even believe that the vaccination itself will cause a pandemic and kill off many, acting as a population control. Others believe President Obama is behind this "genocide" and that this H1N1 vaccination is a form of evil which the government is controlling.
To be honest, I don't know what to believe, and I've already been vaccinated with both the seasonal flu and H1N1 vaccinations, so I can't turn back.
One thing I can tell you is that on the day of receiving the vaccine, I did come down with the WORST headache, and in the middle of suffering, I thought I was slowly turning into a zombie..
Fortunately, I am better, and hopefully I will be protected from the different flu viruses this year, and that will be all....no zombie stories, no long-term effects.
What do you think about propaganda and its influence? Do you think it's just a great marketing strategy to do what America does best?...Sell Sell Sell!! Or do you think the people up there are really looking out for us?....
Here's an awesome propaganda poster I found...hahaha...hilarious!
