Aventis will provide 2.6 million flu vaccines for US in January

Does anyone else see the irony in a French pharmaceutical firm coming to the rescue of the US? Combine that with the US government working with Canada to come up with another million or so doses after telling Americans that drugs coming from Canada may be unsafe.

I wonder if republicans will boycott the drug vaccine from France? They may not be smart enough to figure out that Aventis is French. After all, they called for boycotts on "real" french products like Gray Poupon Mustard (made in good ol' USA) and Heinekin Beer.

Maybe France should initiate a nationwide publicity campaign touting the flu vaccine. They could use the other French import, the Statue of Liberty, in the ad.
