Rally in Albany Tuesday Over H1N1 Flu Shot Debate



(New York, NY)  --  Hundreds of health care workers will rally in Albany Tuesday, angry that they are being made to receive H1N1 flu shots.  The State Health Department has made it mandatory that all health care workers get immunized by November 30th.  The protestors say their rights are being violated and that they can not be forced to get a H1N1 flu shot.  Officials say there will be exceptions for those health care workers who have a personal health issue that would prevent them from getting the shot.

WOR News spoke with Helena Kosorek from the New York Healthcare Concerned Citizens Group. The Rally will take place at the State Capitol Building in Albany from 10:00 AM until 1:00 PM tomorrow.



Kosorek told WOR News that "no one wants to be forced to take a vaccine that's been hurried through the approval process". 

Kosorek told WOR News that "some hospitals are saying they're going to lose their jobs if they don't take the vaccine".



Kosorek told WOR News that "people will be accepting vaccines that now have adjuvants". 




In a previous version of this article some readers may have inferred that Ms. Kosorek is the leader of The New York Healthcare Concerned Citizens Group and that she was leading a Rally on Tuesday September 29, 2009 in Albany, New York. As a clarification Ms. Kosorek is not the leader of The New York Healthcare Concerned Citizens Group and did not lead the rally.

Marathon Miracle


In a previous blog, “A Runners Wife” I spoke about my husband training for the NYC marathon. All I have to say is that the months of training all came together of an amazing race. Race day is a grueling day for runners, and the family. But a miracle happened...

Pray for Us


U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder testified before the senate judiciary committee and basically shrugged when asked if any other enemy combatant captured overseas had ever been brought to civilian criminal court to face justice. Talk about an incompetent boob, not to mention a disgrace.
