Dear [Safe Way, Kroger, Albertsons, Target, Walgreens, etc.],
I want to say thank you for providing my family with good food and many choices to select from. My family is interested in maximizing our health and we like using your store to provide healthy and nutritious foods. As you know there are many stores in our community that provide similar products but we choose your store because of your friendly atmosphere.
One thing I do ask of you. This whole flu shot thing is a bit over blown. Everywhere I go I am seeing signs telling me to get a flu shot. As a health consumer I make my own choices as to the health of my family. I love this country because I have the freedom to choose what I think is best for my self and family.
Contrary to what I see on TV, there is just not enough safe medical-scientific proof for the safety and effectiveness of these flu shots. Science shows that they have not been properly tested, there is no liability on the side of the flu manufacture if there is a harmful side effect that requires medical attention to me or my child, and there are ingredients in those flu shots that have been proven to cause neurological injuries or even death.
Therefore as a faithful customer I ask that you take down all your “flu shot†signs. Just offer them to any one who chooses to ask for them at the pharmacy. In doing so, it will show me that you value my opinion and wish to keep my business.
If you choose not to take the signs down, then I will have no other choice to look for other places to shop. I choose to shop at stores that respect my freedom to choose what’s best for my self and family.
Respectfully Yours,
