Beware...

So apparently H1N1 also called the "swine flu" isn't a flu where you turn into a pig, and if that isn't mind boggling enough apparently now there's a fake H1N1 vaccine going around.


As reported by WebMD with information from the FDA:





Beware fake " Tamiflu"
sold over the Internet, the FDA warns.
The FDA recently bought five
different products advertised online as "Tamiflu" or as treatments for the 2009 H1N1
swine flu.
Some of the pills contained only talc and acetaminophen.
Some had various amounts of oseltamivir,
the active ingredient in Tamiflu. None was the real thing; all are illegal in
the U.S.




So I guess beware the fake H1N1 vaccine and if you get a flu you just might die from it.

    Not a bad first post, Sara. I would like to see you give more of a summary of the article in your own words. This demonstrates that you really understand what you have read.

    For instance, the article is about drugs used to TREAT the flu, not vaccinations.

    Great picture. 22/25
