I certainly faint about 1/2 the time I get shots as well.

OK, I voted. However, Wookie, your poll lacks the option that IMHO should be there: "I tested positive and had medium-rated symptoms". Such situation is fairly common, if not the most frequent, among those with symptoms.

It’s really quite embarrassingThe bigger they are, the harder they fall

I am sure the cameras and lights didn’t help either and it seems she said this was not unusual for her. The medical term is vasovagal and not uncommon with injections. The most susceptable seem to be young men.
When we hear the checkout staff call for help we know it’s probably a man fainting from an injection/procedure. 
Thank you for posting this.
It is a wonderful example of someone spinning a common event to their agenda while completely ignoring the true medical explanation. It had absolutely nothing to do with the vaccine nor the government taking over her brain.

Nah. We all have our particular issues. One person I know completely freaks out about needles. Another person i know has this totally irrational panic reaction to anything snake-y. Me, I thoroughly hate spiders. With a vengeance. I'm like, "I say we take off and nuke it from space" and have a lot of understanding for the dude who burnt his house to the ground trying to kill a spider in his basement.
