That's actually the number of people who have died whilst also infected with swine flu.

You surely can't mean 'flu kills two thousand people fewer each year than our lovely hospitals manage by infecting patients with MRSA and Clostridium?

Hmm. Why isn't the MSM panicking? Where are the politicians decrying it? Is there a website I can log on to?

This whole expensive vaccination fiasco beggars belief.

Someone is profiting and most of the stuff will probably end up time expired in landfill.

Then in a year or two there'll be another 'pandemic'.

A good way to keep the Pharmas earning.
