I don't care what anybody says, I'm not getting that vaccine. The best way to be immune is by eating fruits and vegetable. Something that is suppose to help you shouldn't have side affects or potentially kill you.

Let's hope the demand doesn't get too great for this untested and dangerous vaccine.
