On June 15, 2009, Secretary Sebelius signed a declaration under the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act to extend liability immunity against tort claims to individuals and entities involved in all stages of 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine development, testing, manufacture, distribution, prescribing, administration, and use.

Liability immunity means that there is no legal tort claim that can be pursued in state or federal court. Individuals and entities that receive liability immunity under the declaration include manufacturers, distributors, States, locals, Tribes, and other entities that supervise or administer a vaccination program, and health care professionals or others authorized under State law to prescribe, administer, and dispense vaccines (Including police and military forces), when they are carrying out activities in accordance with the conditions stated in the declaration.

Got Milk?

Milk, it does a body good?

As many of you know, I don't think that milk is healthy choice for anyone. These kids use an unsophisticated, yet effective, way of testing the theory that you can't drink a gallon of milk in an hour without throwing up.

Ever wonder about drug residues are in your milk?

There is a great video on how Fox News suppressed an investigative story on rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone). You can watch it here.
