Ice-T Gets Flu Shot After Losing Friend to Swine Flu

Ice-T told TMZ that he got the flu shot after his friend’s sister died from Swine flu, according to Contact Music. The rapper admitted he wasn’t really aware of the dangers of H1N1 until someone he knew was affected. He said:

“I actually had a friend die from the swine flu. One of my friend’s I went to school with, his sister.
I didn’t really take it seriously until that happened.

It’s real s**t. I took a flu shot.”

I have to admit that I’ve been thinking that the swine flu scare was more hype because so many people die from the regular flu every year too, but I actually know someone who caught it too so I am probably getting the shot as soon as it’s available to everyone.
