The Gullible Jennifer Garner Flu Shot Campaign

Flu shots remain a subject of intense controversy. Vaccinations of all types remain the centerpiece of the public health herd-mentality paradigm. Just wait until the Avian flu comes, then you will see public health at its finest. Yes, there will be police-state forced vaccinations with experimental vaccines and no right of recourse if you are injured. Thanks to our generally brain-dead Congress the laws are already on the books.

Sickness Industry Reels from the Lack of Flu

The non-event of a flu season in 2008 shows just how sensitive health-related corporate America is tied to the profits of illness. A sad pallor set in over investor meetings as hospital chains such as Lifepoint and Health Management Associates reported very poor patient volume and low profits, especially in their cash cow businesses (children and the elderly). The reason for this stellar non-performance: virtually no flu season.

Flu Vaccine Fails to Protect Children

The flu vaccine in the past two years was not effective in reducing hospitalizations or doctor’s visits in children under 5. In a normal world this would cause parents not to expose their young children to the risks of vaccination when the benefits are non-existent.

Bovine Colostrum and the Flu

Natural protection against bacterial and viral infection is required for the survival of humans. The undisputed powerhouse in this category is first milk colostrum, a mother’s gift of protection to the newborn child. It is clearly associated with fewer digestive and respiratory infections.

Ensure Adequate Zinc for Flu-Fighting Immunity

Scientists at the University of Florida have shown that zinc not only supports healthy immune function, but increases activation of the T cells responsible for destroying viruses and bacteria. Healthy humans taking 15 mg of zinc per day had significantly improved T cell function, meaning they had a higher ability to ward off infections they could have been exposed to. This is an important point to keep in mind, especially with an unpredictable flu season ahead.

Seventy Percent of U.S. Children Lack Vitamin D

For the first time researchers looked into a large number of children (6000) from across the U.S. in an attempt to determine the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in this population. The results were shocking, a whopping 70%. This poses an immediate problem for flu-related immunity, a medium-range problem for obesity predisposition, and a long-term problem for future heart disease and cancer.

Do Yearly Flu Shots Increase Mortality Risk from Swine Flu?

A rather startling article published in the prestigious Lancet calls into question the wisdom of a yearly flu vaccine and points out that it could very easily cause more severe H1N1 swine flu. It is one thing when the critics of Western medicine point out all the flaws in vaccine theory. It is another matter entirely when the Lancet does so.
