I will not be taking Tamiflu or giving it to my family. It’s dangerous.

Not really, very low death rate for it, flu kills a whole more people. That author of the article comes off as slightly hysterical.

Did you look at the date of that article, November 26, 2005? Maybe they’ve changed the formula since then.

Natural non-prescription alternatives to pharm-manufactured pills for keeping one’s immune system healthy:

1 Multi-Vitamin per day
Vitamin A (I curently take 10,000iu/daily)
Vitamin C (I currently take 2,000iu/daily)
Vitamin D (I currently take 2,000iu/daily)

Also, if you start feeling flu-ey, and can’t get a prescription for Tamiflu, Sambucol can be found at your natural health food store - It is just a brandname of black elderberry. It comes in either a syrup or tablets that you let dissolve in your mouth.
