The H1N1 Virus

My son received the H1N1 vaccine in the beginning of October.
He became very ill afterwards, it was scary.

Fast forward to a few days ago: The school is MANDATING the vaccine. He tells his teacher he already got it and she calls him a liar. I was incensed. She told him nobody in the county had it yet, and he wasn't special. I called the pediatrician to make sure I was NOT having a brain injury moment, and they got me a copy of the shot record and a stern letter to the teacher.

Boy takes letter to school and teacher cries, whilst apologizing.

In my mind, proof that the media is participating in scare tactics.
