Target Corporation Wants to Inject You With the Flu VaccinesteemCreated with Sketch.

in #health7 years ago

So, I had to bop into Target a couple of weekends ago in Keene, NH for a quick bathing suit purchase on the way to the YMCA and this is what I saw greeting me and all other customers.

Yes, that's right. Target will give you a $5 gift card if you let them put a needle into your veins and inject this year's flu vaccine into your bloodstream. Does anybody else find this incredibly bizarre and disturbing?

I know, I know, Target cares DEEPLY about our well-being, evidenced by this promotion and the bowl of free candy as part of the setup. We all know that Snickers, Peanut M&Ms, and good health go hand-in-hand!

If there were ever a more blatant display of a corporate pharmaceutical agenda, I would like to see it. It's also worth noting that I just read the fine print on the handout that I grabbed and the offer actually expired on 3/31/17.

Does this mean that participants get an expired flu shot as well? Oh, goody! And then after that, I'm sure the fine print is pointed out and you don't actually get a gift card. But hey, at least you got a candy bar! Take two for your troubles!

The wheels are coming off this roller coaster ride, and the lengths to which the carnival barkers and big influencers are willing to go are becoming greater, more blatant, and more destructive than ever. I encourage you to question everything and seek the truth wherever you may go.

Yeah the Ingles grocery store out by us is doing something similar: 200 gas points for getting your flu shot. Definitely struck me as strange. I can't remember the last time I got the flu, ditto for the last time I got a flu shot.

Me neither for flu or flu shot.

Thanks for this awareness and this is really disturbing...injecting toxins in people which is not necessary...

Omg just atrocious! That is the most blatant display of a corporate pharmaceutical agenda ever ewwwwww!! And the icing on the cake...that expired coupon, talk about a slap in the face, good on you for speaking out against this disgusting crap. We need more people raising their voices and speaking their truths!!

I know Lyndsay, just utter nonsense. You just have to wonder how it's benefiting them if they are willing to give some of their profits away.

The writing is on the wall for those who have eyes to see...
