    According to this article the French Military are to be deployed for the destribution of H1N1 vaccines at 1080 centers across the country. It looks like voluntary numbers were so low that they may extra "staff" to help distribute the vaccine. :eek:

    According to French government figures only about 300,000 people have taken the jab so far in spite of extreme pressure from the health ministry and daily media hype about the alleged dangers of the swine flu.

    Already 400 schools in France have been shut in the past couple of weeks as the government propagates the myth of a country under siege from the swine flu. :rolleyes:

    It's not often that you quote an article that completely contradicts your hype RTDH.

    Demand for the vaccine in France has spiked to the extent that they don't have enough medical staff to service the demand, so the Army is helping out.

    I don't see the problem.

    Run_to_da_hills, you are posting crap in the hope that if people see military+vacine that they will think its forced vacination. Which this is clearly not.

    Please clarify what you are saying and what the CT is here.

    Ok so the french military are administering the H1N1 jab and the big news is where? The military are getting paid to do something may aswell have them do something slightly as useful as cleaning guns sure administering the vaccine why not.

    Hardy bucks sums up what I think of swine flu
    Skip till about 2mins and you will get the idea

    I am not posting crap.

    I have every bit to be concerned about the possibility of forced manditory vaccinations whether be France, Ireland or the EU. No better way enforce such draconian measures than to train the army into taking on the task.

    But if you read your own link, they're bringing in army medical personnel to help. So they're bringing in people who already know how to administer a jab.

    So nobody's being trained to do anything they don't already know how to do.

    You don't need to worry about forced vaccinations. People are getting sufficiently aware of the danger now and voluntarily presenting for vaccination. Great.

    There's no CT here, and there's no point letting this dead thread be allowed to come back to life, so... Closed. PM me if somebody strongly feels otherwise.
