The Swine Flu Shot

For a week now....folks in Germany have been discussing this two-shot deal for swine flu. Basically, the govenrnment has one shot reserved for government workers and one shot reserved for everyone else.

Now, the government has tried to settle this...saying the "big" shot for government folks has a slightly different formula but then folks ask why, and the scientists have kinda avoided answering this....mostly I think....because they really can't say much. One company made formula A and one company made formula B.

The "A" formula? Reserved for for soldiers, police officers, and essential workers. "B" goes for the rest of the folks.

Then you have a group of experts who claim that neither shot offers much protection.

So a bunch of Germans are standing there...shaking their heads, sipping beer....and wondering if it even matters.
