Here’s something new for you- the definitive last word on our previous installment of the Last Word: Sick of It Part Deux.

I am no doctor, nor am I a scientist, but due to the many nameless experiences I’ve enjoyed throughout my youth, I do know a quality drug pusher when I meet one. They are generally calm; sometimes even graceful. They are not opposed to using their own product, but rarely abuse it. Above all, they are confident in the product. They do not concern themselves with whether or not you need the product, or how it may affect you. Their concern is your ability to pay.

The marketing for the H1N1 vaccine seems 20 times more calculated than any street drug, and 50 times more effective. Some have said that the vaccine is the beginning of the zombie apocalypse; a bunch of otherwise dead people being kept alive or reanimated  by power hungry officials with rogue chemical substances. I would hate to subscribe to such radical thinking. What scientist would even have the resources to deliberately take that kind of risk for the sake of mind control? It sounds more like some George Romero movie project than it does real life. Besides that, “deliberately” is a strong accusation. Unfortunately, there is no denying that mistakes have been made. There are drugs that were/are being made in real life that have gone unmonitored; doing major damage until it is too late to be fixed. It is a thought that gets my brain box working over time.

By definition, a zombie is nothing more than an unfortunate human whose mind and body have been altered through no fault of their own; an individual whose condition is so severe, that the rest of us are left with nothing else to do but run and hide and hope that the condition never finds us. My biggest problem with the idea of zombies is neither the unsettling ways in which they move, nor the way some tend to want to eat your brains to stop their pain (though they are both legitimate issues). My biggest problem is that the impending zombie apocalypse (according to subscribers of the theory) would include our family, friends, and eventually all the people we know.

My concern is people like the lovely Desiree Jennings. If you haven’t already heard, the poor girl suffers from ‘Dystonia’, though some have serious doubts about her condition. Realistically, the condition could have been brought on by any number of things (well not that many). So far her condition is rare (we hope), but her story can’t help but bring us back to that mysterious vaccine. Desiree Jennings could have been anyone of us, and now she suffers from something that may have been preventable.

Once again, it simply DOES NOT make sense to add more hybrid foreign substances to your body for the sake of prevention. CNN Health reports that “the panic eased after health authorities determined that the H1N1 virus appeared to be no more dangerous than the regular flu virus. Evidence also showed many of the seriously ill patients had underlying medical conditions.” Yet millions were led to believe that death was looming without the vaccine, despite the fact that the regular flu kills twice as many people per year, every year. They even started coming up with new ways to vaccinate children until…”800,000 H1N1 vaccine doses for young children recalled; safety not a concern”. A recall? Aaand safety is not a concern? Why then? “One of the five manufacturers supplying H1N1 vaccine to the United States is recalling hundreds of thousands of flu shots because they aren’t as potent as they should be.”  I can’t imagine how I might have reacted if someone had said this “official” bullshit to my face. My disappointment in anyone believing we could all be this stupid makes me want to punch someone.

Whether or not you agree or disagree with the notion is your right, and someone else deciding that you be vaccinated against your will is wrong. The wonders of science have saved our lives, so does it mean that we have lost to the right to question it? It makes me sad to think that Desiree’s best prevention would have been to ‘just say no’; even if the pushers were medical professionals, or worse the FDA. It becomes a lot harder to consider what’s in your own best interest when the experts are so sure they already know. I mean they know… don’t they? Peep this.

“What is more, if science ever gets to the bottom of Voodoo in Haiti and Africa, it will be found that some important medical secrets, still unknown to medical science, give it its power, rather than gestures of ceremony.” -  Zora Neal Hurston
