“There is no cure for the common cold or influenza or pneumonia either. Your statement shows a lack of understanding of modern medicine. MOST all of modern medicine is symptomolgy treatment.”

You are incredibly wrong. There are vaccines for various flues and there is a vaccine for pneumonia as my husband had to have it every two years.

your knowledge of vaccines and the human body is very confused. There are multiple types (causes) of pneumonia. The vaccines that are made each year for the various influenzas are dicey at best.

Those vaccines are NOT cures. The pneumonia vaccine is more effective than most influenza vaccines. And prey tell me when someone comes down with these diseases anyway what is it that modern medicine does??? They treat symptoms. Do you not understand that modern medicine treats symptoms??? We have wonderful machines (breathers and dialysis) that help. We have sterile environments in hospitals. We can keep people isolated to mi of particular minimize transmission of diseases. We can keep patients cool if their temperature gets too high and bring it down some with analgesics.

All that being said not a one of those things is a ‘cure’. There is NO CURE for viral infections. The body can be helped to fight that is it. It is like healing a broken bone.....medicine provides the body help but it is the body that heals the broken bone.

The sad thing is you actually think that a ‘flu shot’ will actually cure you of the common cold.
