Back in 2005, The Federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted unanimously to recommend that all children between 6 months and 5 years old receive flu shots each year. Now they are trying to expand that to include children up to 18 years.
There are three major reasons why this government push to vaccinate all children, not to mention adults and the elderly, with the flu shot is so infuriating:
1. The majority of flu shots contain 25 micrograms of mercury; an amount considered unsafe for anyone weighing less than 550 pounds. And who is most sensitive to the neurological damage that has been associated with mercury? Infants and children.
2. No studies have conclusively proven that flu shots prevent flu-related deaths among the elderly, yet this is one of the key groups to which they’re pushed.
3. If you get a flu shot, you can still get the flu. This is because it only protects against certain strains, and it’s anyone’s guess which flu viruses will be in your area. It even says so right on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) own Web site:
“The ability of flu vaccine to protect a person depends on two things:
1) the age and health status of the person getting the vaccine, and
2) the similarity or "match" between the virus strains in the vaccine and those in circulation.”
There is also a good chance that if you get a flu shot, you will come down with symptoms of -- what else? -- the flu. Side effects from the inactivated flu shot include:
Soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given
Fever (low grade)
Aches
The live-virus vaccine (marketed under the name FluMist), on the other hand, can cause:
Cough, wheezing and runny nose
Sore throat
Headache
Vomiting
Muscle aches
Fever
So why would you take your chances on a flu shot that has not been proven to be effective, and that can make you feel like you’ve got the very illness you’re trying to prevent? Because the powers that be have done an excellent job of scaring people into believing that they must get a shot to stay healthy.
Top Tips to Avoid the Flu -- Without a Flu Shot
So please do not fall for all of the hype. You don’t need a shot to avoid the flu -- in fact the shot will actually weaken your immune system, and you need your immune system working at full speed to keep you healthy. I have never received a flu shot and haven’t missed a day of work due to illness in over 20 years.
Here are the “secrets” I use to keep the flu (and other illnesses) at bay:
- Get plenty of sunshine or vitamin D. Fortunately, spring is here in the northern hemisphere and most can finally have access to healthy sunshine on their skin.
- Eat right..., including avoiding sugar
- Exercise
- Get adequate sleep
- Address emotional stress
- Wash your hands regularly (but not excessively)
You can read the rest of the above article here.
If that doesn't convince you and you are an older person pay attention to this.
"Dr. Hugh Fudenberg, one of the world's leading immunogeneticists, states the chances of getting Alzheimer's disease is 10 times higher if an individual has five consecutive shots than if they have one, two or no shots. This is likely due to the thimerosol (a mercury-derived preservative) and aluminum content of the vaccine." The rest of this article is found here. I encourage you to read it and make sure you have ALL the facts.
Me personally, I am just going to take my vitamins, take extra vitamin C, and pray. :-)
