Go ahead and get e flu shot, ignoramus. I know you want to do what
they tell you to do like a good little citizen.

In fact, why don't you get two of them.

10 Reasons Why Flu Shots Are More Dangerous Than a Flu!

The verdict is out on flu shots. Many medical experts now agree it is
more important to protect yourself and your family from the flu
vaccine than the flu itself. Let’s take a look at the reasons behind
this verdict:

1.) There is a total lack of real evidence that young children even
benefit from flu shots. A systematic review of 51 studies involving
260,000 children age 6 to 23 months found no evidence that the flu
vaccine is any more effective than a placebo. Also the shots are only
able to protect against certain strains of the virus, which means that
if you come into contact with a different strain of virus you will
still get the flu.

2.) Medical journals have published thousands of articles revealing
that injecting vaccines can actually lead to serious health problems
including harmful immunological responses and a host of other
infections. This further increases the body’s susceptibility to the
diseases that the vaccine was supposed to protect against.

3.) Ever noticed how vaccinated children within days or few weeks
develop runny noses, pneumonia, ear infections and bronchiolitis? The
reason is the flu virus introduced in their bodies which creates these
symptoms. It also indicates immuno-suppression i.e. lowering of the
immunity. The flu vaccines actually do not immunize but sensitize the
body against the virus.

4.) Its a known fact that Flu vaccines contain strains of the flu
virus along with other ingredients. Now think about the impact such a
vaccine can have over someone with a suppressed immune system? If you
have a disease that is already lowering your body’s ability to fight a
virus, taking the flu shot will put your body in danger of getting the
full effects of the flu and make you more susceptible to pneumonia and
other contagious diseases.

5.) The Flu vaccines contain mercury, a heavy metal known to be
hazardous for human health. The amount of mercury contained in a multi-
dose flu shot is much higher than the maximum allowable daily exposure
limit. Mercury toxicity can cause memory loss, depression, ADD, oral
health problems, digestive imbalances, respiratory problems,
cardiovascular diseases and many more such serious health ailments.

And what about the elderly? Can the flu vaccine help them?

6.) There is mounting evidence that flu shots can cause Alzheimer’s
disease. One report shows that people who received the flu vaccine
each year for 3 to 5 years had a 10-fold greater chance of developing
Alzheimer’s disease than people who did not have any flu shots. Also
with age the immune system weakens, thus lowering your ability to
fight off infections. Introducing the flu virus in the bodies of
elderly could have dangerous consequences.

Can we trust the authorities who are promoting the wide-spread use of
flu vaccines?

7.) The Center for Disease Control appoints a 15-member Advisory
Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). This committee is
responsible for deciding who should be vaccinated each year. Almost
all the ACIP have a financial interest in immunizations. It’s all
about the money and may have very little to do with your health and
well being. The very people pushing these vaccines stand to make
billions of dollars. This itself creates a doubt on how effective
these flu vaccines really are?

8.) Research shows that over-use of the flu-vaccine and drugs like
Tamiflu and Relenza can actually alter flu viruses and cause them to
mutate into a more deadly strain. Couple this with drug resistant
strains and you have virtually no benefits with much risk.

9.) There is enough evidence that shows that the ingredients present
in the flu vaccinations can actually cause serious neurological
disorders. In the 1976 swine flu outbreak, many who got the flu shots
developed permanent nerve damage. Flu vaccines can contain many
harmful materials including detergent, mercury, formaldehyde, and
strains of live flu virus. Is this what you want to put in YOUR body?

10.) Trying to guess what strain to vaccinate against each season has
proved to be no more effective than a guessing game. This has been
very true in recent years with the H1N1 strain. Moreover getting multi-
shots will only prove more dangerous as different strains of viruses
and harmful ingredients are introduced into your body.

Flu shots are indeed more dangerous than you could think, and it is
best to rely on natural ways to protect against the flu rather than
getting yourself vaccinated.

Isn’t it interesting that the main stream public health officials
never promote the various proven ways to avoid the flu other than
through
vaccination? How about spending some of the billions of advertising
dollars teaching us natural ways to boost our immune systems and avoid
the flu without harmful and sometimes deadly vaccinations.

No, you're about 10 years younger than I am, even though most people
would think you are MUCH younger.

But go ahead and get your little mercury shots. Have your girlfriend
get one too. Go ahead, ignore the warnings. Disregard any natural
and safe ways to prevent flu. Take their shots, take whatever they
say is good for you. Good little citizen. March, bitch!

None, you dumnass. Bacteria causes milk to sour,

Now, what chemical reactions causes food in a can to become more
acidic?

Were you full of shit when you said this;
Beldin quote 1 "acid content may render it unsafe.

Beldin quote 2" anything with acid inside (tomatoes being an easy
example) have
shorter codes because the acid content rises over time
That ALWAYS happens, if left on the shelf long enough"


Beldin quote 3 "The acid concentration gets higher over time, though,
you fucking moron, and
eventually becomes dangerous "


Beldin quote 4" And the acid content goes up over time"


Beldin quote 5 "Go do shots of sulphuric acid, and get back to us "


So, dumbfuck, explain the chemical reaction that takes place in a can
of food that causes the acid content to go up over time? Why are you
dodging the question, you were quite emphatic about saying it several
times. Is it because you were full of shit, just like you were about
everything else?

I should correct something. Bacteria give off lactic acid that causes
the milk to sour. However, milk is not packaged in a steril
environment like that that exists in a canned food. In a canned food
there is no bacteria.


So, dumbass, what causes canned food to become more acidic?

Lie.

Actually, in your case, stupidity.

Yes, you fucking moron, there is some bacteria in canned milk.
YES, you fucking shit for brains, it goes sour over time.

It is greatly reduced over, say, regular pasturizsed milk (which is greatly
reduced over UNpasturized milk) but it still exists'

How fucking big a retard are you?

Why are tomatoes acidic, asshat?

It won't go sour, there are no bacteria in it to creat lactic acid.
It may deteriorate in other ways.

So, tell me, moron, how does a can of tomatoes, that is sterile at
the time of canning, become more acidic? I belive you stated it could

Estimate how many people would die each year if no one had flu shots.
Don't assume that you couldn't be one of them.

I once worked in close contact with dozens of people and there is always a
percentage who insist on bringing their illness to work and giving it to
others rather than use their sick leave. I've had flu several times and
twice it was really bad. I can fully understand how it could kill a weaker
person.

I think this is a good discussion, but this source has some serious
problems Paul. This is a pretty shocking claim it makes that caught my
eye:

"One report shows that people who received the flu vaccine each year for 3
to 5 years had a 10-fold greater chance of developing Alzheimer�s disease
than people who did not have any flu shots."

The author doesn't provide any sourcing or links. After looking into it,
it appears to be a totally debunked theory put forward by a doctor who had

By the way, I eat 5 to 6 cloves of garlic EACH day. Morning, and
night.

As to chlorine dioxide, look it up. You will find many hits that will
tell you "MMS" will kill you, and many hits that will tell you the
good it does. I personally have been using it rarely, for five
years. But it takes some preparation.

Me neither. The efficacy of vaccinations is just another big lie:

"As reported by the group Health Freedom Alliance, children who have been
vaccinated according to official government schedules are up to five times
more likely to contract a preventable disease than children who developed
their own immune systems naturally without vaccines."

..

�'No study of health outcomes of vaccinated people versus unvaccinated has
ever been conducted in the U.S. by CDC or any other agency in the 50 years
or more of an accelerating schedule of vaccinations'"...

http://consciouslifenews.com/vaccinated-children-five-times-prone-disease-unvaccinated-children/1147287/

Just last week Natural News published a story claiming that while the CDC
says the flu vaccine has about a 60% effectiveness rate, in reality its
true effectiveness is around 1.5%. No thanks!

This is nonsense. The flu shot contains killedf virus. You can't get
the flu from the flu shot.

The nasal mist, OTOH, contains live, weakened virus. You can get the
flu from the mist if your immune system is suppressed, which is why
it's recommended only for healthy people ages 2-49.

This sounds like a very bad idea. It's an oxidizing agent. People
should be taking *anti*-oxidants.

"Experts say a diet rich in fruits and vegetables can help you ward
off infections like colds and flu. That�s because these super foods
contain immune-boosting antioxidants.

What are antioxidants? They are vitamins, minerals, and other
nutrients that protect and repair cells from damage caused by free
radicals. Many experts believe this damage plays a part in a number of
chronic diseases, including hardening of the arteries
(atherosclerosis), cancer, and arthritis. Free radicals can also
interfere with your immune system. So, fighting off damage with
antioxidants helps keep your immune system strong, making you better
able to ward off colds, flu, and other infections."

No, I don't believe the entire idea should be dismissed, but the dangers
inherent in vaccination are real enough that they should be approached
very cautiously, and their historical effectiveness has been wildly
overstated. Certainly the current child vaccination schedule, as you
suggest, is way out of hand.

As for polio, the creator of the vaccine � Dr. Jonas Salk � testified
before Congress in 1977 that the polio vaccine was actually the CAUSE of
most polio cases since 1961. So no, I would hardly call it an "unmitigated
success."

Complete nonsense. In fact, some recent studies have been trying to
figure out why the vaccine is as effective as it is even when scientists
fail to match the strains very well for that season.

Almost all scientific studies show the flu vaccine to be between 50-80%
effective, and results that good are not subject to misinterpretation or
mistake. It's not that hard to measure this stuff. All they are
basically doing is measuring the infection rate of a statistically
significant sample of people who were, and were not, inoculated. It's
not a difficult experiment to try to replicate.

Do a study on how many of those who "don't believe in flu shots" are
afraid of needles.

Then, among the ones who aren't afraid of needles, do a study of those
who hate going to the doctor (or waiting in lines in general) and/or are
inclined to abnormal suspicions of modern medicine (a "conspiracy
theorist" syndrome," etc.), Usenet trolls and those with zero insurance
to pay for a flu shot, and that'll cover just about all of them.

I'm afraid of needles. Always have been, even though every time I get
one I barely even feel it. That's the main reason I don't get the
vaccine, so you nailed me.

I came pretty close to dying of flu complications once. I wasn't given
last rites or anything, but if I got 10% sicker I would have been toast.
It was probably the worst few days of my life. They put me in a cold
bath in the hospital because my temperature was getting critical. No fun
at all. You'd think I would have learned my lesson.

Perhaps you'll prefer these sources. First, an interview with
epidemiologist and leading influenza expert Dr. Tom Jefferson, from TIME
magazine:

"Jefferson and colleagues have published several systematic reviews of
existing studies on the efficacy of influenza vaccines. Weighing the data,
they conclude that there is insufficient evidence to indicate that flu
vaccines reduce infection rates or mortality, even in the elderly."

..

Jefferson: "'In a separate study we looked at the science that
policymakers use, and it's disturbing how large the gap is between policy
and evidence. We looked at the World Health Organization, CDC and U.K.,
Australian and German authorities � they have what it is called a
'citation bias.' They cite some studies that support vaccines, but other
studies that find no effect are left out. Most importantly, there is no
critical appraisal of the methods.' [Cochrane reviewers examine the
methodology of all studies they include in their systematic reviews.]"

http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1967306,00.html

Jefferson went on to publish one of his studies in the British Medical
Journal. His key findings:

�&#65279;Evidence from systematic reviews shows that inactivated vaccines
have little or no effect on the effects measured
�Most studies are of poor methodological quality
�Little comparative evidence exists on the safety of these vaccines

http://www.acpcampania.it/allegati/laboratori/Tom_Jefferson_vacc_influenza.pdf

From the Cochran Collaboration, which parsed old influenza infection data
and reviewed 15 of the 36 influenza trials funded by the pharmaceutical
industry:

"Authors of this review assessed all trials that compared vaccinated
people with unvaccinated people. The combined results of these trials
showed that under ideal conditions (vaccine completely matching
circulating viral configuration) 33 healthy adults need to be vaccinated
to avoid one set of influenza symptoms. In average conditions (partially
matching vaccine) 100 people need to be vaccinated to avoid one set of
influenza symptoms. Vaccine use did not affect the number of people
hospitalised or working days lost but caused one case of Guillian-Barr�
syndrome (a major neurological condition leading to paralysis) for every
one million vaccinations."

That's roughly a 3.3% effectiveness rate for "ideal conditions" � that is,
when the vaccine strain is a perfect match for the circulating viral
configuration � and a 1% effectiveness rate for "average conditions" (when
it isn't).

That's at least a half-step up for sure. I mean, at least this time
you're actually quoting a bona fide scientist! It's good to see my
critical thinking lessons are finally sinking in, a bit.

Just a couple of questions....how did you decide this guy is "a leading

"leading influenza expert's" conclusions? If it's less than a
preponderance (which, of course, it is) why do you choose to believe him
over the vast majority of other "leading experts"?

You *really* need me to do that for you?


A 2011 meta-study published in the journal The Lancet, "Efficacy and
Effectiveness of Influenza Vaccines," analyzed 31 prior studies on the
effectiveness of influenza vaccination trials conducted between 1967 and
2011. The analysis found that flu shots were efficacious 67 percent of
the time; the populations that benefited the most were HIV-positive
adults ages 18 to 55 (76 percent), healthy adults ages 18 to 46
(approximately 70 percent) and healthy children ages 6 to 24 months (66
percent).[53]

The vaccine eliminated millions of cases while causing hundreds. You

The was an editorial in the Denver Post this morning bemoaning the low

everyone get a flu shot. He complained that Colorado requires all
motorists to have insurance, but doesn't require everyone to get a flu shot.

Of course, not everyone must buy insurance, you only need it to get a
license to drive on public roads. And insurance just costs you money,
it doesn't put a foreign substance into your body. Somehow I think that
this author, in a different context, would be defending a woman's right
to control her own body. Unless, of course, he wants to inject
something into it that she does not want injected into it.

But that is a pernicious reason for violating human rights, that we see
used all too often. Especially in the health-care area, where the fact
that taxpayers are on the hook for health costs resulting from some
personal decisions is used as a rationale for the government to force
citizens to make the "right" decisions.

None of us being the sole inhabitant of a remote island, choices that we
make affect others. Total freedom is not possible. My concern is that
we are already going too far (IMO much too far) in giving up our rights
for the "good of society." Governments are notoriously bad at making
such mandates, and government power vs. an individual is extremely
asymmetrical.

There is another controversy about flu shots in Colorado, where
health-care workers are required to get them. Some health-care workers
do not want to get flu shots but are threatened with losing their job if
they don't. This is a more complex question; the employers have rights
here as well and they believe that their workers need the flu shots to
protect their patients.

No, I don't. They are quite different situations. The bar owner is
operating a place of public accommodation, so the State has a legitimate
interest in prohibiting the air from being fouled in such a place. And
the State can have such a prohibition without infringing on anyone's
rights, it's not forcing anyone to put any substance into their body
that they object to (quite the opposite, in fact). So more than seeing
no problem with prohibiting smoking in public places, I heartily call
for such prohibitions. The casinos in Colorado became much more
pleasant environments once the ban there went into effect. We no longer
have the minority of nicotine addicts fouling the air for everyone else.

You know that I've called for legalizing drugs, especially marijuana.
But no drug that is smoked (and thus gets into the air) should be legal
to be smoked in public places. And once someone opens his property to
the public for profit, it is a public place (specifically, a place of
public accommodation).

> I think you're just fine in allowing government to

Fallacy. To recognize that there are things that are legitimate for
government to do is not at all "allowing government to control just
about everything."

Being opposed to required flu shots allows freedom of religion (Christian
scientists)
Any non-fucking-moron supports public accomodations banning smoking. You
have no right to force customers to breathe fouled air

It's an infringement on the property rights of the bar owner to run his
business the way he sees fit. For fuck sakes, no one is forced to go there.
If it's bad for business, he'll ban smoking to make his customers happy; or,
he'll let people smoke and go out of business. But how the fuck can the
government mandate it one way or the other? The government didn't take the
risk of opening the bar, or work there to make it profitable, or do anything
to contribute to the operations of the bar.

Not trite bullshit, a fair comment on a stated position.

The rationale for both is "public health." The Government isn't banning
smoke in bars just because it doesn't like smoke. It does so because there
are health risks. You accept this rationale in this context, but reject it
in the case of inoculations. I don't see the line you are drawing.

No, they licensed it as a public accomodation, and he is not allowed to
poison the public.
You're making a shithead argument. It's been made in this newsgroup since
the 1990's, but it is STILL a shithead argument

accomodations

They both involve public health, but in different ways. In the case of
mandating inoculations, it is forcing people to put a foreign substance
into their bodies that has both beneficial effects and undesirable side
effects, on the chance that IF they get the flu they MAY pass it on to
others. In the case of banning smoking in places of public
accommodation, the law is PREVENTING individuals from putting harmful
substances into the air that the other people in that place cannot avoid
breathing into their own bodies. Pretty much the opposite. The
non-smoking law is protecting individuals from being subjected to
unwanted substances being put into their bodies, not mandating that they
be ingested.

So both rejecting the inoculation mandate and having the smoking ban
protects individual's rights to not have things put into their bodies
that they don't want put in.

Some people say that the bar owner should have the right to ban or allow
smoking as he wishes, on his property, and that his customers have the
choice of not patronizing there. There is some merit in that, but a bar
is still a place of public accommodation, where the owner of the
property has opened it up to the public. Opening it to the public (as
opposed to a private home, say) entails a greater responsibility to the
public, and permits the government to establish regulations over that
space that are in the public interest and protect the rights of the patrons.

So it would be ok for him to serve his customers methanol? Why should
the government be allowed to interfere with that?

For fuck sakes, no one is forced to go there.

But people are effectively forced to work there.

I don't particularly listen to the argument from fucked in the ass
retards like Beldin only concerned about his fucked in the ass
girlfriend who can barely wobble inside an average door width.

The way this was approached in my country was that it was about
workers and the workplace. Why should anyone doing a job be forced to
passively smoke when we know now that passive smoking is harmful?

Dude, please.
As the premiere fucked in the ass retard of Ireland, you lead the league in
MAKING fucked in the ass retard pronouncements, and while workplace safety
IS a concern, a bigger one is the general right of access of everyone who'd
like to breathe.

You must be drying out. You're even stupider than normal

Given I do not have a "girlfriend" and my beloved is not a fat pig, this
statement is as moronic as most of the shit that flows out of some oraface

It wasn't a "head shot". lol You sound like you want to kill her in a
computer game.

Most of her body was in full view, and it was disgusting.

How much does she weigh and what is her height? You must have figured
this out for yourself.
