No, I'm suggesting that we spread the wealth. Why invest in one vaccine and depend on one company when it may be easier for other companies to send vaccines to other parts of the country. It's better to have more sources instead of just one. Besides, this whole Bird flu thing is blown way out of proportion. What, 60 people have died out of billions of people on the planet? Sounds like one more scare tactic by the Bush administration to make a buck to me.
We already know they lie about security threats, the former national security advisor said it him self that they would raise the security threat level for political reasons. So why should we be concerned about getting Tamiflu?
I can't believe you actually wrote this.
My patience is small this morning, so I am not going to say much about this post. I would suggest that you reflect on it though.
