What happened to the right to refuse, as a patient?


You have the right to refuse. Just like the company you work for has the right to refuse to keep you as an employee.

Science isn’t even sure the flu shot you are getting will prevent you from getting the flu, since it might be a different virus than the one focused on.



It inoculates you to the strain most likely to spread that year. Science is rarely 100% sure about anything, but we still go with what we got. We seem to have come a long, long way in the medical field the past 100 years or so.

Join the military? Travel overseas?




None of that is applicable here.

You’re replying to one of at least three healthcare professionals in this very thread alone.

If swabbed again later and it’s positive after the original was negative, it’s probably a hospital acquired infection and nobody gets paid.



Yep...if patient is positive hospital day 3...it's considered hospital acquired by NHSN. Unless there is documentation that the patient arrived symptomatic (fever, respiratory, etc).

She is so beautiful and supportive of every American's right to be killed by a preventable disease.

I sure am. if you'd like to debate it, then explain to me why expenditures are higher yet life expectancy is now going down.

Polio was made up by the Illumati and filmed in the same basement as the moon landing.

Flu shots only decrease relative risk by 50%.

Basically, your chance of getting the flu decreases from 2in100 to 1in100.

They are not the same as historical vaccines. The flu shot has no chance to completely obliterate the infection like the polio vaccine did.
Flu Shots provide a very minimal benefit compared to the cost to administer them to a population of millions.

They are a pharmaceutical scam and a giant waste of money.

The type of idiot that’ll send their unvaccinated kid to school and not bat an eye. But get all pissy because another kid brought a PB&J sandwich to school that might make her kid break out in hives.
