This result was so surprising that psychologists ran another version of the sneeze hypothesis in a mall. This time, the interviewer sneezing and coughing, while conducting a survey on the priorities of the federal budget (i.e., should the government spend money for the production of vaccines or "green" jobs?). The participants were more federal spending to 1.3 billion U.S. dollars in the production of vaccines against influenza, instead of creating jobs to support green when the experimenter sneezing. Thus, pandemic influenza has the ability to change public sneezing, the political preferences of the other current priorities (i.e., "green jobs) for the production of vaccines against influenza," says Schwarz.
