"Flu"
30-second ad annnounced Oct. 16, 2004.
 

Announcer: Flu shots save lives.

Three years ago, medical experts warned George Bush that a dangerous shortage loomed.

Instead of fixing the problem, production of the vaccine was sent to a factory overseas – the vaccines were contaminated.

Now Bush wants Canada to help, even though his own policies make it illegal for us to import medicine from Canada.

Seniors and children wait. 

Not enough vaccines for pregnant women.

A George Bush mess. 

It’s time for a new direction.

John Kerry: I’m John Kerry and I approve this message.
