So we could’ve stopped this in its tracks last year with a known and proven vaccine?

Sure Jan.

This is great news. Hopefully here in the Soviet Union of CA the flu shot can soon “count” as being vaccinated against covid.

Maybe the shingles shot would do the same.

This is very good news for me and my spouse. We had the flu shot and the covid shots. No wonder no covid symptoms to either one of us even after a jam packed cruise in 2020.

I had my last flu shot in Sept. 2014 on the advice of my then quack. 6 weeks later I contracted BOTH strains of the flu.

Oh, and I had the coof last August. Wasn’t quite as sick but it did last twice as long as the double dose of flu. There will be no more jabs for me!

But it’s not the Flu. It’s totally different you know.

I'm old, been having the annual flu shot at the VA for years, rarely sick and I believe I had covid in Jan. '20 with minor symptoms.

Won't get the covid jab though.

If its manufacturer can’t show it’s at least 85% relatively more effective than placebos, gene-altering, and tested on fetus cells, it’s not worth forcing on 5 billion people under threat of segregation and total social alienation and prison

In my late 20s, I had my first and only flu shot. Missed two days of work right after. Never again.

Maybe because so many supposed Covid cases are the common flu?

So does HCQ and Ivermectin and with the added bonus not getting any of those possible extremely rare, very rare, rare side effects that somehow get reported to VARES.

So for the first time ever, maybe I should get a flu shot?

“Folks, we appear to have protection, due to the flu shot.”
******************************************************
From what I’ve read, it seems that anything that prods your immune system to go to a higher state of “readiness” will help you if you are later exposed to the virus that causes COVID-19. There have been studies that show the Tuberculosis vaccine and the pneumonia vaccine (the “old” one, not the newer one which covers more strains of pneumonia) have a similar preventative effect against severe COVID-19.

Of course heathy nutrition can also help strengthen your immune system.

Well I regularly got the flu shot until last year since I figured with all the isolation and measures that it wouldn’t be needed. I didn’t get the flu . I think my theory was accurate. That said while I haven’t gotten any of the covid ones I can see getting the flu shot this year if this has validity.

Protection from what?

Get the flu shot at your own peril. Why? This 2017-18 Study shows flu vaccines make people MORE VULNERABLE to Coronavirus…
