In February, 1976, swine flu struck Fort Dix army base in New Jersey, killing one private and infecting hundreds of soldiers. The president at the time, ordered a vaccine to be distributed amongst Americans costing approximately $135 million. Then an outbreak of Guillain-Barré syndrome broke out caused from the vaccine. This caused 30 deaths by April, 1976.
This is an example of how President Obama should NOT handle the outbreak of Swine Flu. He should not rush into things and have his "experts" come up with a miracle vaccine that will eventually cause some other disease.
