Swine Flu *Vaccine Dangers* Exposed

Swine flu was considered a pandemic in 2009, though it wasn’t nearly as serious as health officials predicted it to be.

At the time, a vaccine was quickly put together with very little testing, in an effort to protect the population from the impending danger.

Many people chose not to get the shot because of the swine flu vaccine dangers, and because they didn’t see swine flu as the big threat that it was hyped up to be.

However, this year people may not have the option of not having an H1N1 vaccine if they opt to get a regular flu shot, because the same vaccine virus that was used in the 2009 vaccine is now part of the regular seasonal flu shot.

Swine Flue Vaccine May Be Counterproductive

Interestingly, a Canadian study found that those who received a seasonal flu shot in 2008 were as much as 274% more likely to get H1N1 than those who elected not to get the shot. (1)

Referencing this study, health columnist Mike Adams says the seasonal flu vaccine is only effective in 1.5% of the adults who are injected with it. (2) That is a pretty sad number.

What’s even more sad is the fact that the swine flu vaccine that was hyped as being imperative to saving lives was just as ineffective. (3) Not only are these vaccines ineffective, but they can lead to some very serious side effects that make them more dangerous than getting the actual flu.

Swine Flu Vaccine Dangers

The swine flu vaccine has been promoted as important for pregnant women and children, yet research has shown that the H1N1 vaccine contributed to well over 1500 miscarriages. (4)

This vaccine also uses a mercury-based preservative called thimerosal, which is linked to autism as well as other brain and immune dysfunctions. While it is possible to get a thimerosal free version, you have to request it.

Unused vaccines with thimerosal are disposed of as hazardous waste, and yet is is considered acceptable to inject it into a human being.

The H1N1 vaccine is linked to other side effects as well. These can be relatively minor such as headache, fever, fatigue, malaise and infection.

However, this vaccine can also have serious side effects such as immune system disorders, anaphylactic shock, Guillain-Barre Syndrome, Bell’s Palsy, paralysis and death. (5)

Flu Related Deaths

A Harvard epidemiologist estimated the mortality rate for H1N1 at between .007% and .045%. The estimated mortality rate for seasonal flu is .06% to .24%. (6)

It is difficult to get an exact number of fatalities since the CDC decided to stop testing for swine flu and instead assumed that anyone with flu-like symptoms had H1N1, but the small number of flu-related deaths would make immunization appear for more dangerous than the flu itself. (7)

The fact is, there is no vaccine that is 100% safe.

One thing to keep in mind is that vaccine manufacturers are protected by the government. If their vaccine injures or kills someone, there is little recourse. They cannot be sued. Is it worth the risk? (8)

Staying Healthy

 

A safer alternative to flu vaccines of any kind is simple vitamin D. It will help keep your immune system strong and has been shown to protect against flu. (9)

Elderberry is also shown to protect from flu infection and may also help you recover from the flu faster.

Follow a common-sense approach to avoiding infection. Wash your hands, get enough rest, and eat healthy foods that help your body stay strong enough to fight infections.

Of course, avoid people who are obviously sick if at all possible.

Only you can decide if the flu shot is right for you, but before you decide, do your research and understand the dangers of whichever choice you make.
