I told you people the flu wasn’t serious. I told you it was retarded to stand in a throng in front of a clinic for a flu shot. Here’s some nice little evidence in a comment under a news article, based on stats quoted in the article:

Yes let’s crunch some numbers. First, 40-45% of Canadians had the H1N1 shot. That is between 14-16 million people, not 25 million.
6000 adverse reactions out of 15 million is one adverse reaction for each 2500 people.
200 serious side effects out of 15 million is one serious adverse reaction per 75,000.
How serious was H1N1 ?
71 deaths out of 35 million people is about one in 500,000
The risk of getting a serious adverse reaction from the H1N1 shot was 6.7 times greater than dying from H1N1.
It had been a long and desperate struggle. My assault rifle was hot and stinking of fire, but somehow it had kept firing with no sign of wear. I crouched in the loft of a barn, one which had once belonged to a family with kids and pets and a pickup truck. Tonight, it belonged to a different family: mine.
Tomorrow, it would belong only to the infected.
