18 Things To Consider Before Getting a Flu Shot This Year
- 85 – 90% of flu-like illnesses every Fall and Winter are not caused by the influenza virus. The flu shot will not prevent:
- The Stomach Flu
- The Common Cold
- Other flu-like viruses like RSV, Adenovirus or Parainfluena or SARS
- In the winter of 2003/2004 the CDC (Center for Disease Control) knew that the A/Fujian strain would probably hit North America, but they did not have enough time to mass produce a flu vaccine with it — yet they promoted the ineffective version anyways. Last year’s flu shot was between 0 and 14% effective. Does this year’s shot contain the correct strain to protect you? Is it worth the gamble?
- There are few documented cases of humans contracting animal-based microbial strains such as Avian/Swine Flus in our history, however, suddenly in the last 10 years it is being suggested that we now need to be vaccinated for them.
- Amongst healthy adults tested, the flu shot, even when it contains the correct strain, has proven to be effective less than 25% of the time.
- The flu shot is recommended for “high risk groups”, such as infants and the elderly, however there is no convincing scientific evidence that they are effective at reducing flu-complications, such as pneumonia, in the elderly. As per the Compendium For Pharmaceuticals, drugs and vaccines are only “tested” on white males between the ages of 25 and 35. Are you willing to “try” a untested vaccine on your infant or Grandmother?
- A number of other scientific studies indicate that a great number of flus are actually caused every year by vaccines. For example, babies and children are the new target market group for the flu shot, despite the fact that studies have shown infants to have a poor immune response to the vaccine – in fact, studies have shown that children who have never been exposed to influenza, are at high risk of contracting the flu from the shot.
- Common side-effects after getting a flu shot can include: cough, wheezing, chest tightness, difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, hoarseness, sore throat, facial swelling, fatigue, memory loss, itchy rashes, chronic fatigue, fever, paralysis, and swelling and soreness at the site of the injection.
- Severe reactions include: Guillain-Barré syndrome, auto-immune attack, long-term weakness, tingling in legs which spreads to upper body, total muscle paralysis, autism-spectrum issues, early onset Alzheimers or dementia, loss of gross/fine motor skills, death.
- Contra-indications can include: allergies to eggs/chick embryo, previous negative reactions to any vaccine, individuals with known sensitivity to thimerosal/mercury, negative reactions during acute illness, including fever, negative impact during an unknown chemical or neurological disorder.
- The flu shot has not been tested for safety during pregnancy, yet it is now being recommended to pregnant women. Are you willing to risk the potential ill effects on your unborn fetus after receiving an adult dose with the additives listed below?
- Flu shot ingredients and additives include: Ethylene Glycol (antifreeze), Phenol (carbolic acid used as a disinfectant, dye), Formaldehyde (a known cancer causing agent), Aluminum (an additive to supposedly promote “antibody response”) is associated with Alzheimer’s, seizures and also known carcinogen producing malignant tumors in laboratory mice, Thimerosal (a mercury-derivative used as a disinfectant and preservative) can result in brain injury and autoimmune disease, Neomycin and Streptomycin (used as antibiotic) has caused allergic reaction in some people, Chick embryo (and other animal proteins) which potentially carry undetected animal viruses in the vaccine.
- Homeopathy has a 200 year-old proven history of high efficacy preventing the contraction of infectious illness during epidemics such as Cholera, Yellow Fever, Scarlet Fever, Smallpox, Influenza, and Leptospirosis (which was tested on 2.3 million Cubans in 2008 reducing the effects of this deadly bacterial infection by 84%.) Homoprophylaxis is the fancy term we use meaning the application of “The Law of Similars,” which modern-day vaccination unconsciously attempts to mimic.
- The effectiveness of the Homeopathic flu remedy is not dependent on second-guessing which influenza virus strain will strike this winter, since it works based on The Law of Similars, rather than on the need to match an exact strain. Sort of like knocking out all the radio stations on the dial instead of just trying to target a specific one.
- The Free Homeopathic Clinics all across North America have tracked an efficacy rate in excess of 98% every year since 2001.
- There are no chemical additives in the Homeopathic Flu Nosode that is sourced from reputable, high quality, and sterile Pharmacies around the world: this means that there are no potential allergic reactions, or toxicity can result. (It is questioned that all the additives in the conventional flu shot are there because the facilities are not clean and contain potential contaminates.)
- The Homeopathic flu remedy is not contra-indicated for your Grandmother, Grandfather or during pregnancy or breast-feeding.
- The Homeopathic flu remedy can also be used to treat an active case of the flu. It will also clear out any residue from the system a person may have from being exposed to the flu or the adverse effects of the flu-shot in a previous year.
- Homeopathic remedies are much more cost-effective to produce than vaccines, and produce much higher rates of immunity to diseases.
