Military services again requiring recruits to get flu shots as Air Force outbreak grows

"As of Tuesday, at least 222 recruits at Lackland Air Force Base, part of Joint Base San Antonio, had been diagnosed with the flu and four had been hospitalized, the two people familiar with the matter told ABC News. 

This marks a sharp increase from the 159 cases and two hospitalizations reported last week. The death of one recruit remains under investigation, though it is not yet clear whether it is tied to the outbreak, the sources said."

222 sick, 4 in the hospital, and possibly one dead. That is what all this nonsense conservatives push leads to.

Wonder why?

Besides drug approval, which is not a measurement in itself, I can attest to this. A large German pharma, has increased their head count from 7 to 40 within a year. They bought a local pharma for 1 billion US dollar and at the same time closed a US facility. The same goes for many other pharmas. You can say what you want about China, but they are investing heavily in science. Because they believe in science. Unlike the current regime of the US.

Fox News Humiliated as Crew Gets Fined in China After Parking Illegally 'For 2 Minutes'

One Fox News viewer offered a more measured perspective, "Cool, that's how parking enforcement works in NYC, DC, Chicago, LA, London, and basically every major city with cameras," adding, "You park illegally, the system catches it, you get a ticket."

The same commenter elaborated, "The only difference is the speed of the notification. Most US cities mail you the ticket a few days later. Beijing sends a text the same day. The technology is faster. The system is the same.

If "automated parking enforcement that texts you when you violate the rules" is communism, then NYC's $238 million in annual camera-issued parking tickets is the largest communist enterprise in North America."
