If you are in a hurry jump to the 2nd page.

So can we get these reclassified as a homeopathic flu and respiratory disease prevention supplement. Then just slap a "These statements have not been confirmed by the FDA" label on the side and be done with it?

Great find.

Well I got a chuckle out of this. I bet the FDA won't.

That has got to be why the FDA wants to ban them! LOL They probably keep people from getting sick and then big insurance does not get all of our cash anymore!

I see that Walgreens is selling flu shots for $24.95 a pop.
Maybe they should sell a cheep starter kit it would be safer.

1942, it is then quite old. I don't think they can be found now.
