We all have our opinions. We are doing what we see as the correct thing based off of research and evidence.
Hopefully before it harms them in a bad way.
research and evidence shows you vaccines are a GOOD THING, prevent DEADLY DISEASES and have very few side effects
of coarse its your choice...but YOU and YOUR FAMILY are running the risk....mumps, whooping cough, measles, german measles, etc...get vaccinated and save the hillbillies or don't get vaccinated and possibly wipe out an entire town
uhm there is ZERO mercury in any of the shots...has been that way for a decade
Actually, the multimode flu vaccine does have mercury (Thimerosal), but mercury-free shots are available and there is no mercury in Flu Mist. That is the only childhood vaccine that MAY contain mercury.
Yes which is why its not good injecting crap into your immune system WHICH COMPROMISES IT!!
How is it compromised? You are injected with a flu antigen which stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies against that particular virus and possibly some close cousins to that virus and in turn gives immunity to the person injected. Your thought process is convoluted. Again, please explain how it is compromised?
If the vaccine compromises your immune system, why are the people who are dying from flu the ones who have not taken the vaccine?
You guys aren't getting your stories straight. One time you're saying that EVERYONE must be forced to take the vaccines because they won't work on all people, now you're claiming that as long as someone gets the vaccine, they will not get the flu.
That's anti-vax nonsense, although it doesn't support anti-vaccination very well. If people who get vaccinated are healthier, what does that say about vaccinations? Maybe you could post some real stats about this "healthy user effect". Forgive me if I don't just swallow your assertion that it's statistically significant.
I seriously doubt that.
Why am I not dead by now? I have never had a flu vaccine. I feel perfectly fine. I use no drugs, am on no prescriptions, haven't seen a doctor in years and I've never called in sick to work.
Taking a vaccine does not improve one's overall health -- that's is plain silly.
What I find weird is that you cannot understand how serious an illness influenza is.
It's serious only for some. You can guarantee that during my life, I've had exposure to the flu viruses and I've never had a single flu vaccine. I've never had to call in sick to work, I've most likely had the flu but recovered over a weekend.
There are too many other factors that aren't being presented in the flu deaths. Did the virus actually kill them or did they lay in bed for several days straight and let their lungs fill up with fluid or did bed rest lead to emboli that killed them? Lots of people are under the mistaken belief that laying in bed will help them fight a viral infection when it's actually the worst thing they can do.
