I went to an exclusive medical facility once for an executive physical.
The supervising doctor said I was the only person he ever tested, whose D3 was at the correct level.
I was taking 5,000 iu/day at the time. I take 7;000 iu daily now.
asking about flu/pneumonia shots is mandated....
correct. My great grandmother got up on a Monday, sent the kids off to school and was dead by 2pm, sitting up in a chair.
treatment is with high potency IV corticosteroids to tamp down fatal massively out-of-control inflammation:
D3 is a great idea.
specifically, the MK-7 form of K2.

Did he think that provided benefit to you?
I am certain it does not hurt.
You can take a lot of natural things to help reduce the cytokine storm and associated out of control inflammation.
Avoiding dehydration is also important.
You can also tear your esophagus and cause dangerous bleeding too.
He didnt say what you ascibe to him. You read that in yourself.
Yes, fevers that go above 104 and appear to keep rising need to be put under control so they dont cook a persons brain.
Information from Scientific American
FReeper comments also reflect reduced access to sunshine and resulting suppressed immune system
seems to coincide with flu/ influenza outbreaks.

By Death?
Haven’t they determined that the efficacy of the Flu Shot is ~10%?
One word: ZINC
Explain, please!
Easy for Doctors to say get vaccinated, but the last time I did get the shot, my arm swelled up double. They had to give me something to counter act the vaccine.
She developed a bacterial pneumonia directly as a result of having the flu. It is fairly common for people who have the flu to develop secondary bacterial infections, which they would never had had if they were not sick with the flu. The linked article claims that the secondary infections develop as a result of a "weakened" immune system, but since I am a scientist, I find the explanation inadequate. I think that the immune response to the viral infection interferes with the immune response to bacteria, and that leaves people more susceptible.
In any case, the short answer is that she died as a direct result of having influenza. She would not have caught pneumonia otherwise.
I know it’s just a rote question. I wonder if we could have sued if he was given the shot against written doctors orders.
I did a little research on that once. They always trot out the 30,000 deaths a year from flu. A few years ago, the actual death rate was around 280.
I’ve gotten one flu shot in my life, in the early 70’s. Since then, I think I’ve had the actual flu maybe twice.
Follow the money.
If money is the concern, then no medical professional anywhere would encourage people to get vaccinated. A flu shot costs ~$20. Compare that with the cost of a doctor visit (variable co-pay) and prescriptions ($52 minimum for Tamiflu, plus the painkillers, decongestants, etc.) or the cost of a hospital stay (which can quickly cost thousands). And then, if the person dies from the flu, as some 3,000-60,000 do every year in the US, funerals are also pretty pricy. There is a lot of money to be made all around through people getting sick--not so much by people getting vaccinated and avoiding sickness.
