Talking about flu shots in the debate.
Schrubb says the young and healthy don't need them. This shows how out of touch he is. Most of the elderly I know can't wait in line for hours for a shot. My husband, who uses a walker, can't stand for more than 10 minutes. As a dialysis patient and being 78 years old, he should be on top of the list, but instead our healthy 50+ neighbors have received their flu shots after waiting four hours in line at CostCo.. The dialysis clinic isn't getting any shots this year as far as they know.

Who organized this? Oh, I just heard Schrubb blaming the pharma company involved and now saying they are negotiating with Canada for flu shots.

Just bull shit isn't it. :nuke: Apparently only the young and healthy can jump through the hoops and hurdles to get them.
