Bought frozen pack of low carb chicken enchiladas because it said 4g of carbs per serving (keto diet)

Open box and both servings are in a single tray, only possible to cook both servings at once

I'm not even that hungry but I really wanted one. Guess I'm eating two and stuffing myself.

People against anti-vaxxers : How could you be so irresponsible to not vaccinate your kids? Those vaccines help to stop the spread of deadly and crippling diseases!

Also people against anti-vaxxers: I'll never get a flu shot! Who knows what chemicals or additives are being put in there!

Flu shots are for faggots and only a moron would try to compare a yearly flu shot to something like a polio vaccine.

80k people died from flu in the past year, twice the number of auto accident deaths.

Please don’t get a flu shot or wear your seatbelt. Thx.

Last year’s flu season was more severe than usual because it involved the dreaded H3N2 ...found that during H3N2 seasons, the combined vaccine effectiveness was 33 percent.

Flu shot does nothing.

n some seasons, protection against influenza A(H3N2) virus illness may have been lower for people vaccinated in the current season and the prior season compared to those who had only been vaccinated in the current season. This fits with findings on immune response to vaccination that suggest repeated influenza vaccination can weaken immune response to vaccination and especially to the H3N2 vaccine component

Oh look, the CDC website says getting your flu shot every year might end up hurting instead of helping when the bad strains come rolling through. I bet if I googled hard enough (or maybe they cover it up cause it'd look bad) I could find something that says some of those 80k deaths were people who got the flu shot last year, too.

Shit's a bigger scam than the "smoking killed them!" when someone dies of a heart attack cause they weigh 477 lbs but they smoked a cigarette 20 years before they died.

When people with a financial interest in you getting the shot can only massage the number to be 33% ... that's pretty damning.

Vaccines are sold at effectively break-even prices unless they are new combos like Prevnar-13. The cost of an average flu shot is $10-20.

Compare with a sexy new cancer treatment like Keytruda which can be $20k per dose.

OK since you seem to have the numbers at your fingertips, how much does it cost to make 1 dose of flu vaccine? I googled it and all I could find was the they sell for between $10 and $16 a dose.

Exact costs of production are a trade secret.

This is a pretty good blog article about it.

You can read it and the comments and draw your own conclusions; there are some decent critiques.

I saw that when I was looking for the costs. Doesn't really say much other than the author thinks flu vaccines are good. mmkay.

I didn't read the comments the first time. Top few don't really back up your claim. If the guy who says they get $50 per dose is correct, then my $10-$16 must be the cost to produce, which means they don't have a thin profit margin. I don't see any reason to believe that guy and his unsupported claim, which just illustrates how useless it is to read comments in a blog.

10-20 per shot, they say there are 168 million available this year or something. It cost 2 billion plus every year to develop the flu shot?
