22 million were vaccinated, and a number got GBS. About 40 people died, if I remember -- the first three or four were elderly people who died within hours of receiving the vaccine, the media screamed, it turned out that they did NOT die from the vaccine, but by then it was way too late.
I'm actually way too old (statistically) to get this outbreak, but I'll get the shots anyway. I also drive with my lights on during the day, don't tug on Superman's cape....
