Did 'Regular' Flu Shot Up Risks for H1N1 Flu?



Hey vaccines make you sick, then immune system is compromised, so the sky is the limit.



Wanna not catch a flu, vitamin D is a huge benefit.

From your article:



The studies, published April 6 in the online journal PLoS Medicine, don't show whether there is a true cause-and-effect relationship between seasonal flu vaccination and subsequent swine flu illness, or whether the association was possibly due to a common factor among the people in the study, said principal investigator Danuta Skowronski, of the British Columbia Center for Disease Control in Vancouver, and colleagues.





Ive never had a flu shot before, and Ive never allowed my children to have them either. But that decision on whether or not to do so is between my heath professional and I, not some anonymous internet conspriacy theorist on a political forum.

Nice comment, no wonder my opinion of you is so low....

In one study, the researchers used an ongoing sentinel monitoring system to assess the frequency of prior vaccination with the seasonal flu vaccine in people diagnosed with H1N1 swine flu in 2009 compared to people without swine flu. The researchers found that seasonal flu vaccination was associated with a 68 percent increased risk of getting swine flu.

And that has what to do with the fact you dont have proof hence no argument ?





Where is your proof ?

I've never had a flu shot, yet I had H1N1 last fall.

You probably knew someone who did get the jab. Hell the spray, according to the insert, incubates H1N1 in your nasal passages for up to 21 days. Now thats a nice way to spread a flu, just sneeze, or even exhale.

Im still not seeing any direct cause and effect proof.





Considering you dont have access to the health history of the patients involved in these studies, you dont have a clue what the cause was.
