“This is pure fantasy,” said Cmdr. Cappy Surette, a spokesman for the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery.

The report aims to incite opposition to the mandatory vaccine that all service members will receive in the coming months, Surrette said. It has been circulating online since September and provides few details about the “unnamed Navy vessel.”

“PLEASE pass this email along. The truth is that the swine flu epidemic will be created BY THE VACCINE. If we don’t take it, there will be no epidemic,” read one e-mail obtained by Navy Times.

The report’s source is cited as “The International Forecaster,” a Web site run by a retired stockbroker who frequently posts shrill reports of imminent global economic meltdowns alongside advertisements for investing in gold.

The Navy has reported no incidents of the H1N1 flu vaccine making anyone sick, Surette said.

We will be re-recording the “Attack of Da-Chief’ Netcast tonight as the last one touched off a “FIRESTORM” up in BUMED.  I will not get into the in’s and out’s of it all here, but suffice it to say, I hate it when “SOMEONE” thinks themselves more important then the “TEAM”.  I will say “1′ person Screwed up a great website, Screwed up a great NETCAST, that folks were assisting with on thier own time, valuable time they took away from their family to help out their shipmates.

I have re-writtten the next paragraph 3-4 times now, and have had to delete it each time as I am letting my “CPO” anger take over, and really can’t. I don’t want to stoop to name calling and “Nanny Nanny Boo Boo’s” etc.. So with that.. It’s over..

The merge is moving along smartly, The Ens. Howell has ok’ed the transfer and we are awaiting the DNS move which should happen in the next week or so, HospitalCorpsman.org will then be hosted on our server, and ran by Corpsman.com.

This is a huge change and big undertaking, we are  going to make the hosptialcorpsman.org area our “NAVY ADVANCEMENT” area.  I will be coming up with something else for the other services.. I.e 68 Whiskey’s and Airmen etc.. “1″ team, “1″ Fight!

Along with this, Corpsman.com’s front end will be changing soon as well, and the tone of our writing will change.  I am no longer in the Navy, so I will voice my opinions more then I have in the past.  I treated the front of our site like I was still on A/D for the last year. I am not and will write what I think, and not be afraid to do so.

So if I feel a program is Outdated, Bone-headed, Nuts or if I think a person is not taking care of their juniors, be on notice, I will write about it.  I will also and hope to write more about things that are going right with our Enlisted Medical Programs of all services.

I feel there will be a lot of articles from me on the new merge. 

So look for the new NETCAST after tonight, Tony (8404) and I area gearing up for it, and want to put out something special.  Sorta behind the 8 ball right now as my kids are sick and I am awaiting a baby-sitter to watch them so I can “MAKE GROCERIES” (N’awlins term).

See you all on the flip side..

Till then

Da-Chief is “OUT”!
