The Case of the Missing Flu Vaccine

John Kerry wanted to blame Bush for the lack of flu vaccine available in the United States.  George you horder you.  For a realistic reason why the flu vaccine is in short supply, you need to read “La Grippe of the Trial Lawyers," which was written by William Tucker and published at The Weekly Standard.

From Tucker’s article.

"If Kerry thinks he can solve the flu vaccine problem, he need look no further than his own running mate, trial lawyer John Edwards. Vaccines are the one area of medicine where trial lawyers are almost completely responsible for the problem. No one can plausibly point a finger at insurance companies, drug companies, or doctors. Lawyers have won the vaccine game so completely that nobody wants to play."

Thanks to Greg Swann at Presence of Mind for the link, who got it from Diana Hsieh, who just happens to have the flu.
