Re: "There is also the emerging field of neuro-immunology..."

Just yesterday, I read an article at SciTechDaily.com about the relationship between Alzheimers Disease and the immune system.

A large sample of elderly people who routinely get a flu shot each year had a 40% reduction in Alzheimers compared to those who do not get flu shots.

At this point, the researchers cannot say for certain if the flu shot causes the 40% decline, or if influenza and flu related diseases like pneumonia trigger an immune response that attacks the brain.

I tried to find the link at SciTech, but nothing comes up.

Google has a half dozen hits for "flu shot 40% reduction in Alzheimers."

Highly doubt that this statement is accurate.

Who makes “flu” vaccines?

Cui bono?

Let us look at Vaxxinity -

” . .New Alzheimer’s Vaccine To Get FDA Fast-Track Approval Process

Vaxxinity, a biotech company from Texas, announced its candidate Alzheimer’s vaccine was designated “fast-track” by the Food and Drug Administration. Meanwhile, the FDA suspended a study of a diabetes stem-cell therapy due to “insufficient information” in support of higher dosing.

Dallas Morning News: Vaxxinity Vaccine To Treat Alzheimer’s Wins FDA Fast-Track Designation
It’s been a promising month for Vaxxinity, the Dallas biotech company testing a new wave of vaccines to treat chronic diseases. The company announced Monday its vaccine candidate to treat Alzheimer’s disease, called UB-311, received fast-track designation from the Food and Drug Administration that will expedite the review process through more frequent discussions between Vaxxinity and the federal regulatory agency.

If the subject is of immediate interest to you - that is, if a close friend or family member is showing signs of Alzheimers’ - here are articles and excerpts of possible interest:
