Mr. Bush is always telling us that US healthcare is the envy of the world but we sure seem to rely on Canada a lot for affordable drugs and available vaccines:
Set Sail on a Flu Cruise SEATTLE (AP) _ Oct. 22, 2004 — Looking for a quick, healthy getaway? How about a high-speed ferry trip to Victoria, British Columbia, and a flu shot? Trying to capitalize on the flu shot shortage in the United States, Clipper Navigation is offering travelers aboard the Victoria Clipper a special rate of $105 per person for round-trip transportation and influenza vaccination. The normal fare is $115 per person, the company said Thursday. The shots will be available to passengers after they are cleared by Canada Customs and Immigration at the Belleville Terminal in Victoria's Inner Harbor, officials said. Vaccines will be available Monday through Saturday until Dec. 31, officials said. Those who have already booked trips can add a flu shot for $30. The Victoria Clipper departs Seattle at 8 a.m. and leaves Victoria at 5 p.m. daily. Copyright 2004 by The Associated Press.
