This chart is real, straight from the Centers for Disease Control. And it’s spectacular:
We went from 12 million flu shots in 1980 to almost 200 million in 2020.
Great job! We totes got rid of the flu, right?
Well, here’s flu deaths from 1959 to 2016:
See the trend?
No?
THAT’S BECAUSE THERE ISN’T ONE. There is absolutely no relationship between the number of flu “vaccines” we give and deaths from influenza.
Actually it’s worse that that, because 2017-18 - not shown on this chart - was the worst year for flu deaths in decades - probably since the Hong Kong flu of 1968.
Turns out the flu shot is just as useless as the Covid shot, but no one noticed because it isn’t as dangerous.
Not as dangerous medically, I mean. Arguably more dangerous societally because the public health bureaucracy’s commitment to ramping up flu shots at all costs became the prototype for the Covid mRNA shot campaigns…

I’ve never had a flu shot. Never saw the point.
If I read the chart correctly, it is deceptive, because it measures total deaths, and the population had greatly increased, so deaths per 100,000 have likely declined.
But the science .... of mathematics (statistical analysis)

Posted this on another thread. Fits nicely here as well:
Under Biden, in the 7 months after the United States reached 50% fully vaccinated, 309,000 Covid deaths were reported.
In Donald Trumps last 7 months in office, with less than 1% of the United States Fully vaccinated, 278,000 Covid deaths were reported.
Reported Covid deaths:
Trump: 400,000
Biden: 600,000
Given that autism seems to be increasing in the population, a possible link can be postulated.

I find it fascinating and sad that, like Islam-related violence in the West is greeted with "motive unclear" reporting, the "unclear" for rising rates of autism seems still answered with "gosh, golly."
While correlation is not necessarily causation, rising incidence of one element can be suggested as causal to another. Pharma hates that notion for the most obvious of reasons.
I got a flu shot once and only once. It was the year that I subsequently got the flu.
Sometimes I think we should stop calling it CoVid, because we called SARS-CoV-1 just SARS. So I think we should call this one SARS-2, not CoVid. Many people don’t think they are related, but they are. So why don’t we just say that in a straightforward way?
The Flu deaths data is not presented correctly and proves nothing.
It needed to presented as deaths per 100,000, not deaths overall.
Umm the US population nearly doubled in that time yet the number of deaths from flu remained fairly consistent. That’s a positive result.
Nope. Well got one once many years ago. Since then......nah.
I had a friend the same thing happened to. He was mad as a wet hen. He swore he got it from the flu shot because it was immediately afterwards he got the flu. Anecdotal, perhaps.
As noted by several, the chart doesn’t reflect the population factor. More anti-vaxx garbage.
I only got a flu shot once, and I did it because I had re-entered the workforce, and worked with a lot of people from different backgrounds. I often handled money from them, too, so I figured it would be a good idea.
Then I caught some virus, though I’m not sure if it was the flu or a run of the mill virus during cold season. Immediately I got an opportunistic strep throat infection. I was out for a week between the two, at a time when I really needed every hour I could get.
I haven’t gotten a flu shot since then, and I haven’t been sick either.
You made the proper point there. It kinda moots the tenor of the article.
1960 population: 179,323,175 plus approximately “11 million” illegal aliens.
2022 population: 334,282,669 plus approximately 35 to 50 million illegal aliens. (La Raza Amnestistas)
Flu is to keep u from missing work.
A better statistic with yo how many cases of the flu were documented during this period of time
I will confess that my wife got the flu really bad three or four years ago. After two weeks it got better, and then it got even worse for another two weeks. I nursed her through it - and never showed symptoms.
We both (mostly my wife) nursed her sister (who has MS) through a bad bout of Covid about six months ago. Again, we never showed symptoms - and of course we never got the Covid jab.
My take on all this stuff is the same as the apostle paul’s: To live is Christ and to die is gain.
I mustered out in 1976. My mom convinced me the ooga-booga flu variant the CDC was scaring up was bad and me and my wife should go get their great new tailored flu vaccine for it - the Swine Flu vaccine they called it for some H1N1 variant.
We got the shot - and I got a case of doctor-verified pleurisy that caused pain and problems for a decade.
Oh.... and that initial Swine Flu program? They ended it after 25% of the population got it. All the while since (at least before Covid) they were saying it takes 75% or better to get herd immunity. Was there something ‘special’ about this concoction? Yeah, there was....
For 8 years I belonged to the government. I took their shots because they owned me and I had to.
That Swine Flu shot was the LAST CDC/Government shot I will EVER take, period.
