they never will have a vaccine for colds.

like the flu, colds mutate, but a lot faster than flu does.

and there is nothing wrong with getting a flu shot, unless you are allergic to the components in the vaccine.

one other thing, the vaccine for flu, will not protect anyone from the 1918 version of the virus unless it is made from the 1918 virus.
and as some pointed out, it may not be a flu virus.

oh and the flu shot won't give you the flu, if properly prepared.
the symptoms will be like a mild case of flu because your immune system is attacking dead virus. that is the way the body builds up immunity

Read the link.  This isn't about annual flu shots.  It's about reviving the 1918 worldwide killer flu epidemic bug in the name of "research."

First reaction:  Let sleeping dogs (bugs) lie.

Second reaction:  Oh good, give terrorists another target.

We've seen this movie before -- "Go ahead, sweetheart, pull the stake out of the monster's heart.  It's okay, it's ... dead ..."

Hold the phone a min here the idea may have some merit.

First we can infect one of these detainiees we have down in guantanimo. Then we can let him go home. Hell we can let a couple go home to their perspective countries Such as Iraq,Sadia Arabia.
Hell maybe we can even send one to France LOL

Your soldiers comes home from middle east and boom..  you have it in america. smart :rolleyes:

Even the most radical leaders up to date have stayed away from biological warfare which involves infectious bacterias or viruses, because those simply cannot be limited to certain areas.
Unpredictable at the best.
You don't want to kill yourself with those...

Doesn't matter that much after your own people are infected with it, which explains the biological warfare in the past.
Like catapulting dead bodies to the enemy fort or giving infected material to indians.
