Swine flu 'debacle' of 1976 is recalled

The episode triggered an enduring public backlash against flu vaccination, embarrassed the federal government and cost the director of the CDC his job.

Warren D. Ward, 48, was in high school when the swine flu threat of 1976 swept the U.S. The Whittier man remembers the episode vividly because a relative died in the 1918 flu pandemic, and the 1976 illness was feared to be a direct descendant of the deadly virus.

"The government wanted everyone to get vaccinated," Ward said. "But the epidemic never really broke out. It was a threat that never materialized."

What did materialize were cases of a rare side effect thought to be linked to the shot. The unexpected development cut short the vaccination effort -- an unprecedented national campaign -- after 10 weeks.

HEAR THAT, PEOPLE?? IT NEVER MATERIALIZED!!!
Now stop panicking & buying into this bullshit like a bunch of uninformed dolts and start spreading the word that this is all a HOAX to get you to take the vaccine/toxic drug Tamiflu and make travel scrutiny at airports even tighter!

Apparently no one is interested in reading this article

They'd rather run around screaming
THE SKY IS FALLING!
Our worst nightmares are coming true!
They've somehow slipped a dangerous vaccine into my coffee!
It's an epidemic!

Guess it's more fun to be scared and completely paranoid than sensible.

EXACTLY! Even is this hoax

EXACTLY!

Even if this hoax is a flu, take care of yourself and you have nothing to worry about.

Another sensible voice in this madness

That's right, take care of your own health as usual.
You have nothing to fear but fear itself.

But hey, I was sneezing a couple days ago -- uh oh, I got this Deadly Swine Flu!!!!

(oh no, wait, it was just the pollen on my front porch...)

Right on... I like your passion!

Thanks elviejo!

Some of the people on here are really pissing me off.

They're buying into the propaganda/mass hysteria Bullshit just like a government's wet dream of an enslaved, gullible, uninformed people.

Frantically passing around the latest "death count" (hmmm, never seems to be anyone they personally know or a public figure -- is Obama walking around wearing a mask???)

THERE IS NO SWINE FLU EPIDEMIC! It's all bullshit people. Hello?????

I think on THIS site the fear is BECAUSE we have all learned...

who these people are and that they CAN do something this horrible. So instead of fear of the UNknown.... there is fear of the KNOWN.

BUT the problem is FEAR ITSELF. as GhengisKhan says. If this is "the end" then we're too late and the best thing to do is make one's peace with one's maker..... If it is a hoax (as I believe it is) then we'll be fine. FEAR and WORRY are absolutely unproductive.

Yes of course

the vaccine is a specially designed poison and is DEADLY.
I know all about big pharma and their toxic drugs.

But yes, fear is DEADLY also.
It shows you don't believe you are in control of your own life, your own body or your own health.

I am in control.
I have not received the vaccine.
I will NOT be receiving the vaccine.
I will laugh at the attempts to scare me into believing there is an epidemic.
Too many suspicious things and no confirmation.

1) This is a hoax
2) You will be safe if you don't take the vaccine/drug

THOSE WHO DON'T LEARN FROM HISTORY'S MISTAKES ARE DOOMED TO REPEAT THEM!
