There are multiple prominent strains every year, they don't always immunize for them all. Kids are grabby little petri dishes anyways, sicknesses always spread faster in schools
My point was, since I stopped getting the flu shot the flu has been minor. And they just missed the mark almost every year growing up? And I got it really bad back then. Hhmmm
91,000 influenza-associated hospitalizations, and 5,700 influenza-associated deaths
Obviously everyone's immune system is unique. Works great for you, but a lot of people they don't. And after I do some research I'll show you the stats for damages they cause.
If you said it was causing an allergic reaction or something then I would say OK. . But you are telling me that the Flu shot causes the flu.
You have been one of the fortunate ones.
Not really. If it didn't work, then half the population wouldn't be getting it.
I like talking and exchanging info with you. You know more than most. And most importantly
you know how to have a peaceful debate...;}
Yep. This is the way it should be.
The media has been dishonest about it and I can prove that. Most people don't do their own research and just listen to the news. I'm busy at the moment but will come back with facts.
If you go to the CDC website they have in bold type The flu shot does not cause the flu. And they also give all the symptoms and reactions the flu shot can cause. No Media.involved.
Appreciate the info.... I'll get back with mine later.
At least when it comes to the flu.
I'm saying that it obviously doesn't prevent it for a lot of people. They aren't that great about picking the right strain to make vaccines for. Allergic reactions aren't worst part.
On good years it's about 40%-60% effective. But that's not getting it at all. But getting the flu with the flu shot, you still are more likely to have less severe symptoms.
And I don't get my facts from the news or Wikipedia lol
I know they can cause an Allergic reaction for some. But that is not the flu. You only have to show me one thing. That the flu shot causes the flu.
2017-2018, flu vaccination prevented an estimated 6.2 million influenza illnesses, 3.2 million influenza-associated medical visits
There are many other viruses that are similar to the flu you can get like a cold, Nora Virus, other intestinal viruses, respiratory viruses or infections.... ETC.
Well since I have been getting the flu shot, I haven't had the flu at all. LOL. And this is even when my immune system was down due to dhemo.
