Just as I thought would happen when I wrote this blog post people have begun to say swine flu was a hoax by the large medical companies to make a load of money from vaccinations.

Why doesn’t anybody think that perhaps all the vaccinations people had prevented the situation from being far worse than it has been? Has everyone forgotten the quickly rising numbers of confirmed cases in the early stages?

Of course, I’m open to the suggestion that it could have all been hype from evil medical corporations run by heartless, unseen billionaires who want people to die so they could make a few more dollars, but it seems a little far-fetched. Too much like a plot from a bad movie. I believe the simpler theory is that the vaccination worked. Enough people were immunised against the virus and so it was stopped, or at least slowed. Occam’s razor. 😉
