The flu vaccine has been available in America sine 1945. The purpose of this vaccine is to help your body build immunity against harmful organisms that make you sick. Your body, however, is equipped to do this naturally.
The mucous membranes, the vehicle by which most disease-causing organisms enter the body, has a defense system of its own called the IgA immune system. Disease-causing organisms kick the IgA immune system into action to fight off the invaders. When a vaccine is injected into the body, the IgA immune system is skipped over and your body’s immune system is jolted into action.
Your body’s immune system being prodded into action this way is unnatural. Do you realize what is in a vaccine? It could contain either killed or live viruses, thimerasol, antifreeze, formaldehyde, carbolic acid, Neomycin and/or streptomycin.
Thimerasol, a preservative that is 50 times more toxic than regular mercury, is suspected of causing some children to become autistic. Other disorders associated with this drug are attention deficit disorder, multiple sclerosis, as well as speech and language deficiencies.
None of us want antifreeze or formaldehyde injected into our bodies. Carbolic acid is a clear and sweet-smelling liquid that is poisonous if touched or swallowed. Neomycin and streptomycin are antibiotics.
According to the news we are in danger of a swine flu pandemic. Everyone is being urged to get a flue shot. A pandemic is a widespread epidemic that affects people in many different countries. What are the symptoms of the swine flu? Should we run to be vaccinated?
Symptoms of the swine flu are the same as symptoms of the regular flu - fever, headache, achy joints, runny nose and/or sore throat, lethargy, no appetite, vomiting and/or diarrhea. So how do you know if you have the swine flu? The only way to know for sure is by laboratory verification. It is impossible to diagnosis yourself.
In 1976, a massive swine flu vaccination campaign took place. Only 1 person died from the swine flu, the vaccine killed 25. Hundreds more were crippled. The government was sued for a total of $1.3 billion dollars. Now the vaccine makers and federal officials have been made immune from lawsuits. So if the vaccine has detrimental effects on you or your children, you won't be paid a single cent.
The Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act of 2006 - the DHHS Secretary is allowed to make the manufacturers of vaccines and drugs used in combating a declared public health emergency immune from liability. Since they have no fear of being sued for billions of dollars, they have no incentive to test vaccines and ensure they are safe.
You can protect yourself from catching the flu without subjecting yourself to a flu shot.
1) Get plenty of sleep.
2) Don’t stuff your face with junk food. In other words, avoid sugar
and processed foods as much as possible.
3) Exercise will naturally strengthen your body’s immune system.
4) Wash your hands with soap and water to loosen and remove
germs that you have unknowingly picked up.
If you would happen to catch the flu, don’t panic. Get plenty of rest and drink lots of liquids (my favorite when I don’t feel well is hot tea). Chicken noodle soup has been scientifically proven to help one get better. The steam from a hot bowl of it helps clear up congestion. Added spices such as garlic and pepper thin mucous to make breathing easier.
You can receive these benefits from store bought chicken noodle soup, but homemade is still the best.
I have never had a flu shot and have only had the flu once during my 43 years. I do not plan on getting a flu shot now. Should you run to be vaccinated? That is a decision you need to make for yourself, just please investigate first and make it an informed one. The new swine flu vaccine has not been thoroughly tested for safety. Those taking this vaccine are being used as guinea pigs. I don't know about you, but I have no desire to be a guinea pig.
