...researchers had originally expected - the vaccine supply from U.S. manufacturers still couldn't keep pace with demand in the first weeks of October, when the first million or so shots rolled off production lines. In many places around the country, there was not enough vaccine even to cover members of priority groups targeted by the government, including young children, pregnant women, health care workers, parents of infants younger than 6 months and those with underlying conditions such as asthma or diabetes. And yet according to the latest polls, 55% of Americans said they would not get the new vaccine - which...
Perhaps the best way to convey the horror of what happened at Fort Hood would have been not to present the nearly life-size face of a killer on your cover but to share photos of his many victims...
...show that the test, which has many risks, may not necessarily lead to fewer deaths from the usually slow-growing cancer.

TIME should have featured Manny on the cover of all the issues like the Asian edition. Manny Pacquiao epitomizes the Filipino spirit and nature, namely the qualities of determination, resilience, simplicity, humility, generosity, love for family and faith in God. With the quote "Di ako bobo" (I'm not stupid!), I salute Manny for not succumbing to the national inferiority complex that came with the colonial spirit. And as a Filipino expatriate, I salute my countryman for being...
