Flu Shot: A heartbreaking example of being on the wrong side of "one in a million"

(From the youtube description. I was alerted to this on the facebook wall of Loose Change creator Dylan Avery.)

Experts claim serious side effects of flu shots amount to about one in a million - well this is what that one in a million looks like. This has freaked me out enough to bypass flu shots in the future. But what do I know - to each their own. A 25 year old woman in Ashburn, Virginia has come down with a severe debilitating neurological disorder days after receiving a seasonal flu vaccination.

jesus.



except for the very young and the very old, flu shots are worthless imo. and i know alot of ppl that that think they are horrible period.

a thought occurred to me tho. mmj has been prescribed for ppl who have uncontrollable muscle spasms. i wonder if it would help with dystonia?
