A 2009 VA Channel video on Youtube (1-minute) shows Secretary Erik Shinseki, and other VA employees, getting flu vaccinations.  They’re doing it the only safe way––one needle, one syringe, only one time.  The drug delivery method used in this example of mass immunization is vastly safer in comparison to the era of mass immunizations by filthy jet gun devices.

Suppose that the medical device delivering the 2009 flu vaccines was a MUNJI (jet gun) and suppose Sec. Shinseki knew that the employee in front of him had HIV, HCV or HIV & HCV, would he still get that flu vaccination?  We know the answer would be NO, NO, and NO.

Oddly, when I view this video in full screen, I don’t actually see the needle going into Sec. Shinseki’s skin (at 22-23 seconds).  Maybe it’s my eyesight, the editing, or it’s a pretend shot.  In any case, the video is a reminder to get a flu shot this year.  It’s free at the VA so don’t wait!  Another resource is: http://www.flu.gov/
