#2  Some 'fine print' in the article -

Participants were noted as particularly vulnerable to flu because they were over the of age 50, had HIV/AIDS, lived in nursing homes or were obese.

So maybe the jab is less useful if you are not in that category? I am way over 50 and a tab bit overweight, myself.

#1  Trying to make the eventual gummint mandated COVID vaccine more attractive. We will soon hear:

It will make you look and feel 10-15 years younger!

It will increase your 401k by 700-900%!

You will get laid even when you aren't looking to!

It will make your check engine light go off!

Grandchildren you don't even have will write you thank you notes for all the wonderful presents you never sent!

You will win at Texas Hold-em tournaments and competetive eating contests!

You will golf, bowl hunt or shuffle board like famous people on teevee!

People will read your blog and you will be linked on Drudge every day!

For starters. I'm sure everyone here can think up more.
