Unfortunately for black Seniors on dialysis, the hospital's Jew administrators who cut conners to save a few pennies, are giving Seniors the annual flu vaccine made for children, instead of the vaccine made for Seniors. This is a racist scam to rid the hospital of black patients who are not protected from the flue virus when they get infected, and require additional medical care as they die, and rack up the medical bill in another form of Medicare fraud or white collar crime, business as usual.
