> Did you get a flu shot last fall?
Yes, I did, but I now find out that I needed a flu shot for seniors. Evidently seniors have been exposed to so many viruses in their lifetime and have had so many flu shots, that the body looks at the virus antigen from the shot and says yeah yeah yeah and only does a superficial job at making antibodies.
Senior Flu Shots deliver 2.5x to 3X the antigens that stimulate antibody production. This is to compensate for the resistance built up in senior immune systems.
The flu shot was only 40% effective. It was somewhat better if you got the shot every year.
I’m just glad I didn’t get The Autism from the shot this year. Oh wait...
If the antibodies from previous shots are already there, they'll attack the antigens from the current shot.
I have not had a flu shot in twenty years. I have not had a flu in twenty years either.
In the case of bird flu, all the large commercial producers two years ago that immunized their flocks to bird flu, lost said flocks to bird flu, they said it was a different strain. Odd thing was the small producers who did not immunize their flocks did not have a problem.
Beware the snake oil salesman that sells a much stronger ersion of his cure when his last cure had you puking your guts out...
Next time, shots or not try oregano oil from northern here and spice, P73 brand at first symptoms. It’s no FDA miracle cure like vaccines but it clears out the double ended squirts immediately.
If you get that sweaty, dinner did not digest feeling and take it, it’s over in twenty minutes.
