Me: "May I please have the package insert for the flu vaccine?"
Rite-Aid Pharmacist: "Why?"
Me: "So I can read it."
P: "Which one?"
Me: "The one advertised with the little banners on every aisle."
P: "I will print you the information sheet."
Me: "No, that's not the same thing."
P: "What do you want to know? I can tell you."
Me: "I would just like to read the whole thing before I consider getting one...side effects, contraindications, effectiveness, ingredients like mercury."
P: "I don't think I have any. Let me check. (checks) Sorry, I can't give you one until the box is empty, because it has to stay in the box. And there isn't any thimerisol in the single dose flu shot any more. I can print you the information sheet."
Pharmacy co-worker with big smile at me: "Hi, I found one." (hands insert to me)
***
Here are some things in the insert not on the store's sheet:
1. The single dose vial contains mercury at ≤1mcg (This is called a "trace amount" by the industry.) The multi-vial contains 25 mcg.
2. People with egg allergies are contraindicated.
3. "Safety and effectiveness have not been established in pregnant women, nursing mothers and children under four. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. This vaccine should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. It is not known whether fluvarin is excreted in human milk."
4. "Fluvarin has not been evaluated for carcinogenic or mutagenic potential, or for impairment of fertility."
5. "Antibody response is low in the geriatric population."
6. "Serious reactions, including anaphylactic shock, have been observed."
7. "There are no data to assess the concomitant administration of flu vaccine with other vaccines."
8. "The vaccine has been associated with an increased frequency of Guillain-Barre syndrome."
9. "In some studies, fluvarin protected up to 50% of subjects."
With love to those who read this far. Please share. 👊🏼
No one needs a #Flu shot!

NEW: I’ve obtained a note to the Black Political Caucus from its former chair Colette Forrest on why the BPC should fully back embattled CMS School Board Chair Stephanie Sneed. In the scathing message, Forrest leaves no doubt why she thinks the BPC should back Sneed: because she’s black. She goes after other black CMS board members for not supporting Sneed.
Forrest said “As a Black Elected, you do not publicly swipe at a fellow Black Elected. As a Black Elected, you know how hard it is to elect Blacks to public office, shame on you.”
For context and accuracy to her statement, it should be noted that every leadership position in CLT is held by a black person. Some were appointed, most were elected.

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after an elderly man who stopped at Walmart after church, told a Black female employee she'd nearly hit his wife with a cart and never apologized...
...the teen called her PARENTS who then BEAT THE ELDERLY MAN TO DE*TH in front of his wife of 42 YEARS!!!!
Yes, you read that right.
He asked a teenager to say "excuse me" and the teens parents k*lled him for it.
His name was Bert Atienza. He was 77 years old.
He and his wife Josephine had been married for FORTY-TWO YEARS and on Sunday, June 7th, they went to church.
Then they stopped at the Walmart to do their grocery shopping.
Josephine says a 17-year-old Black female employee came through with a heavy cart and nearly slammed into her.
No "excuse me." No apology. Nothing.
So Bert did what husbands do, he spoke up for his wife.
In his wife's words, he told that girl: "You almost hit my wife with your heavy cart, and you did not even say excuse me or apologize to her."
Josephine says the teenager then THREW A CAN at them as they walked away. It missed.
The elderly couple, not wanting any trouble, just kept shopping.
Minutes later, that girl's PARENTS showed up at the store, found the 77-year-old man and beat him to de*th.
In his wife's words:
"They crowded my husband, one of the adults hit him in the face. He fell down on the floor. I was terrified. I don't know what's going on."
The Medical Examiner's ruling: blunt head trauma.
WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!!
@TariyePeterside Agreed!
She was a professional, sponsored athlete w multiple wins already. This is what makes her behavior so appalling. She knew better.
@EmmaWatIsThis@BBCWorld … or imagine if she were just an average “open” competitor. She would have been escorted off the course by Medical immediately.
@BBCWorld She’s an absolute sociopath.
This gal was a sponsored athlete w multiple wins already under her belt.
Had she done the proper sportsmanship response + stepped off the course, people would have commended her. Now, she’s ruined her career for one more medal.
She knew better!
Ed Sheeran is one of the nicest guys in the business. He called Macklemore a friend, then refused to blow up an entire tour so hundreds of people behind the scenes wouldn’t lose their jobs. He didn’t pick a side. He thought about everyone else.
Macklemore played with other people’s money and someone who was kind to him. That’s the difference.
Ed is 100% class. Macklemore remains trash.
Democrats historically wanted to import foreigners and put them on welfare because they believed this would lead to the immigrants voting for Democrats.
Republicans historically wanted to import foreigners because their
big business donors wanted a class of indentured laborers who cost less than actual Americans.
Democrats kept this state of affairs alive by calling anyone who opposed it racist. Republicans kept this state of affairs alive by calling anyone who opposed it communist and anti-market.
Our country is now overrun with foreigners, welfare seems to be entirely fraudulent, we’re $40 trillion in debt, our cities are ground zero for millennia-old ethnic and tribal conflicts, and our own countrymen can’t find work or afford a home in a nation built for them by their ancestors.
And if you have a problem with this, Democrats will call you a racist and Republican politicians will call you communist and also call you racist.
Well..he’s officially been doxxed. His name is out. NBC 10 did a terrible job blurring his court information in the video they did and it became easy for people to find him. @SueOC_NBCBoston this is your fault! You doxxed him! You deserve to be fired! @NBC10Boston You are despicable!
8. Here’s the question nobody in Boston is asking. That list was SEALED. A TV station and a blogger didn’t guess his name. Somebody with access handed it over. Court staff, a party, or a lawyer. Find that person. Everything else is downstream of that.
