May provide some risk reduction but it will not make you bulletproof or prevent the flu. A lot of things reduce risk. Vitamin D can also be toxic in high doses. Wash your hand rest we’ll eat well take reasonable doses of vitamins if you want and you will probably get the flu anyway this year....

The flu is always real; it is engineered to be. That is what the vaccine is all about.

You can’t make anyone “bulletproof” for a threat that they have voluntarily received year by year in a vaccine.

I haven’t, but my family always chooses the natural over the synthetic when it is available.

Thanks for the heads up.

WebMD says 5-20% in the U.S. on average get the flu each year, so I guess the odds are still in a person’s favor.

Yep, anyone that doesn’t just suck up is nuts!

Nice false cunundrum!

Do you ever respond factually?

Yes the flu is very real, as all the wealth our government has poured into the Mengles that engineer the vaccines to be as lethal as possible is working as planned.

Wow. That is some tin foil stuff right there.

Good luck with that thinking.

IT IS THE WORSE FLU SEASON IN A VERY LONG TIME. And the paranoid believe this is a fraud? Funny.

Is this your way of making fun of paranoids and paranoia?

Live in your artificial padded world at your own risk.

Calling the reality “tinfoil” won’t make it go away.

The problem with the flu shot is that it doesn’t stop the flu, it tries to cut the severity. I was trying to point out that it is not the answer to the problem as any flu could potentially do a lot of damage to an old, ill person. So can a common cold lead to pneumonia.

And considering the level of illness or age doesn’t seem to be the point in their advertising either. And when you, also, consider the amount of flu virus/germs that come through each year, their sky is falling presentation sounds more like trying to sell them like hotcakes rather than for health reasons. So this is less like health services and more like pushing a copper fry pan.

Infectious Disease Ping - the flu (update)

Mom MD :" ..Most of the people I have admitted with flu did get the vaccine.
The pitfalls of forecasting which strain of influenza will predominate are well known.
Some years are better than others..." "The really bad part of this flu season may not have fully hit.
Early on we were seeing a lot of H3N2 flu.
I understand H1N1 is now starting to rise... so we may see a dual peak this year."

Thanks Mom MD for your sharing your experience with the flu this year
Each year, the people who make flu vaccines make an educated and scientific analysis of the flu season, and make an educated guess as to which flu varient will be dominant.
Sometimes they get it right,.. and sometimes not so much.
Some years it is 65% accurate, and sometimes only 20% accurate in their prognostication.
It takes approximately 1 year to make enough vaccine for the populace, and in really bad years there is generally a shortage of vaccine.
Doctors are encouraging those will suppressed immune systems, the chronicly ill, individuals with pre-existing medical conditions, and the elderly to get the flu shot.
If you get the flu shot, and actually contract the flu, your symptoms are supposed to be lessened and ameliorated.
This varient of the flu seems to be more deadly than normal, even impacting heavily on young children and those with pre-existing medical conditions.
Caution is advised to avoid large crowds, if unavoidable, take medical precautions (mask, frequent hand washing, avoiding obviously ill cashiers in stores,
avoid touching your face, eyes, or mucus membranes when in public)

It is the worst one I remember in a while. The initial wave of H1N1 was more deadly but not as widespread This one is hitting broadly. I currently have it myself

What is your background in virology? I work hand in hand with Virologists, Infection Control, and Emergency Medicine.

I will need a few more rolls of that tinfoil to wrap around the hospital.

“Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.”

Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you may catch the flu and wish you were dead.

The Center for Diabolical Control is a propaganda machine. They are pushing the Back To Sleep Campaign again. No mention of the 44 reported deaths following vaccinations in 2016 in the under 2 age category. When searching through the VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System) database for serious adverse events including death for the year 2016, 108 reports come up. 44 of them are DEATHS. Read the results for yourself here, https://wonder.cdc.gov/controller/saved/D8/D27F676

The really bad part of this flu season may not have fully hit. Early on we were seeing a lot of H3N2 flu. I understand H1N1 is now starting to rise... so we may see a dual peak this year.

Those are the types that were predicted for this year though, right?

The vaccine this year is designed to protect against H1N1, H3N2, and a B type flu.

Was the vaccine just not powerful enough?
