Take the "blue pill" and believe whatever you want to believe.
How applicable. People really are believing what they want to believe, in the face of everything to the contrary.

Yeah like ignoring news stories such as this....
Some Nurses Say No to Mandatory Flu Shots
Large Nursing Groups Are Against New Mandatory Flu Shots for Hospital Workers
Hundreds of people took to the New York state capitol Tuesday to protest the New York State Hospital Review and Planning Council's regulation making the annual influenza vaccination and the forthcoming H1N1 vaccine (Swine Flu) mandatory for state health care workers.
"It makes me feel very vulnerable," a nurse at the rally told ABC News affiliate WHAM in Rochester. "It makes me feel like I'm a guinea pig."
N.Y. health care workers protest mandatory H1N1 flu shots
Nurses and other health-care workers said they shouldn't be forced to get a vaccine that they don't believe has been tested appropriately as a condition of keeping their jobs.
"There's no proof this vaccine will protect us from swine flu or protect us from spreading it to others," said Sue Field of Poughkeepsie, a registered nurse who works in a hospital maternity ward and a primary organizer of the rally.

Yes because what a nurse says in a story is indicative of a massive conspiracy to infect the world with an engineered virus. She said she felt like a guinea pig, therefore it must be true! Heck, I've said that as a joke once or twice when my mum tried out a new recipe. She must be in on some kind of conspiracy too!
If they had created this virus, they would be able to make an effective and safe vaccine very quickly. And why would they create a sub-standard vaccine when their goal is money? More effective vaccine = more people buy = more money. So the fact that the vaccine might not be that effective is an argument against your conspiracy theory. Oh no, wait, let me guess, they're going to bring out a MKII version that's more effective in order to squeeze the maximum amount out of governments, amirite?
Seriously, your conspiracy doesn't hold up to the slightest use of common sense.

Ignoring the British Medical Journal,which IMHO is much more prestigious than the American version, certainly isn't using common sense,or believing the BS from those who are advocating the vaccine for "financial gain"!
The above is a portion of a headline from the October 27, 2006 issue of the United Kingdom publication the Telegraph. The article, and several others on the same subject, were initiated because of a report appearing in the October 28, 2006 issue of the prestigious British Medical Journal (BMJ). In the BMJ report, Dr. Tom Jefferson notes that many studies on flu vaccinations were of poor quality and showed evidence of bias.

Does it look at the secondary rates of prevention? Didn't think so.....

I will believe those trained in the medical field every day of the week before I ever take the word of those who stand to gain financially by hawking this snake oil!
And many of those from the medical field and virologists,and microbiologists, ridicule flu shots as virtually worthless,and even worse"RISKY"!
And this one that was rushed to market,and thousands of doses of "LIVE-VIRUS" sent to 18 countries,via the Baxter case,along with all the other news stories that I have already provided the sources for.
