Flu death in MA...I thought this was thought-provoking (M)

This happened in my town so it really cuts close to home
This was written by his twin sister & I thought it was really interesting what she says about the flu shot...

Many prayers for the family of Hunter Pope

I'm not sure what she meant, though. The flu vaccine does include a strain of Influenzavirus B. Maybe she meant the child had a different strain?

I'm sure that's what she meant, I know this years vaccine strain "predictions" were wrong...
I just think it's sad that the press didn't listen to them and printed that anyways

I hadn't heard about the death of this boy. so heartbreaking. helpful to read his sister's own words -- I'm glad she was given a forum to express herself after the negative experience she had with the media. so obnoxious that she had to deal with that during her saddest time. thanks for posting.
