vaccine shot
No doubt there's already a thread somewhere on accyweb about vaccines and this thread will be deleted or moved but anyway, i recieved a letter this morning from my GP basically saying it's vaccine time and i should get a flu/pneumonia jab. i find this strange since i've not seen my GP since i was about 12 nor had any sort of serious illness for donkeys yrs(touch wood), (needless to say i'm not going) i can only assume it's all about money.has anyone had this jab or got a letter recently?
|
Re: vaccine shot
Got the letter oer 1 week ago, Had me jab on sat morning, always have mine, one year awhile back i missed it n was in bed fer 2 weeks nearly wi flu.
|
Re: vaccine shot
yes I got a letter too....I guess it is related to my age. I've become and old codger.
I won't be going either. I'm sure that GP's practices have targets to meet when it comes to these things....and that their funds are reduced if they do not reach the targets. |

Re: vaccine shot
The last time I had a flu shot was Oct 2007 and had my last dose of flu a few weeks later.
I wasn't a recluse then so I can't tell whether the flu shot gave me flu or whether it was a case of the shot being useless. I haven't felt healthy since. Now I know what is in them I wish I had never had one. PS If you have only just had your first invite for a free jab you must have just attained the age when you are a potential 'useless eater' or pregnant. |

Re: vaccine shot
Works for me. I have a flu jab every year, and haven't had flu for over twenty years.

Re: vaccine shot
Mum has a flu jab every year, as do I, being her carer. She missed one in 2008 and came down with flu which laid her low for weeks. Not long after she had a massive stroke.

Re: vaccine shot
Well I have been doing research into flu jabs as I was offered one for the first time recently and had it last week along with a couple of travel jabs. No ill effects so far even though my immune system has been compromised as I have recently undergone a course of chemotherapy.
You could try reading these links but I will extract some of the information for you. BTW you mention money having something to do with it - what exactly do you mean? Flu vaccination - NHS Choices BBC News - Flu vaccine 'withheld for safety' You are eligible to receive a free flu vaccine if you:
Frontline health and social care workers should protect themselves by having the flu vaccine to prevent the spread of flu to colleagues and other members of the community. If you care for someone who is elderly or disabled, speak to your GP about getting vaccinated against seasonal flu. You should also ensure that the person you care for has the flu jab. |

I don't think I have ever had 'flu'........and I think I have probably been exposed to it many times during my work in the NHS.
I just get a bad chest with few preceding symptoms.....not even those of a head cold. I turned 65 this year so that is why I have been called. |

I'm due to go on hols soon and should have a yellow fever vaccination but it's contraindicated for over 60s and for folks who've recently had chemo therapy so I missed that one on two counts. |
Re: vaccine shot
its just When my doctor wants to give me drugs (i don't need?) as im fit and healthy with a ok,all round diet its natural defences up time lol, i dont believe prescription pharmaceuticals are the answer to preventative health ;) i think we should F science off and go back to creationism and "natural" medicines(that includes medical marijuana ;) ).BUT thats just me ;)

Re: vaccine shot
Had mine this morning. Flu jab in one arm, blood out of the other. Think i must be unlucky. :D:D:D:D

Re: vaccine shot
I don't normally bother about going for a 'flu jab but the district nurse is going to come and give my wife one and told me I should have one also.
It is now arranged for me to have the jab at home the same time as my wife. This year will probably be the very first time in my 74 winters that I have 'flu. |

Pneumococcal vaccination - NHS Choices Interestingly I haven't been offered this one though the indications are that I fulfil the criteria. I don't know of anyone who has had or been offered it, it seems to be much lower profile than the flu jab. Though it is a one-off rather than an annual thing. |

Re: vaccine shot
Researchers found that:
1.the vaccine prevented only 1.5 of every 100 adults from getting sick. 2.Reliable evidence on vaccine efficacy is thin 3.Vaccines do not affect the transmission of disease, even though their stated purpose is to reduce transmission of disease 4.doctors and pharmacies fail to divulge what harmful additives are found in vaccines and the side effects that can result( additives include aluminum, formaldehyde etc/ side effects include narcolepsy etc) :hidewall: |
Re: vaccine shot
Quote:
No additives are there just for show, there is a very good reason for their presence. Aluminium compounds are there to help the vaccine do its job better. Formaldehyde is used to kill unwanted viruses and bacteria that might contaminate the vaccine during production. Most formaldehyde is removed from the vaccine before it is packaged.

Re: vaccine shot
i wont have the flu jab .. ive had it twice ... and both times was laid low with flu ... when i dont have the flu jab .. i dont get flu .... doc always offers it me .. and i refuse with my reasoning ..and he agrees with me ... i get it offered cos of my epilepsy

Re: vaccine shot
Quote:
I don't think the claim is that the flue vaccine stops you getting sick or transmitting or picking up the infection. The claim is that in most cases it stops it developing and making you very ill because your body already has antibodies ready to fight it. In post 29 you seem to be advocating that we go back to the medical treatments of the early 1900's when the life expectancy for men was about 45, for women about 50. What a silly idea. As for medical marijuana helping to keep you healthy and live longer- that's not a claim made even by its advocates on here! |
Re: vaccine shot
This is the first time I have been offered the 'flu' jab....and I would also get the pneumonia one as well if I took them up on the offer.
The Pneumonia vaccination is a one off. I don't want the flu jab because I have a choice. My husband used to be offered the jab and he used to have it....except that every time he had it he was laid low for as long as six weeks.......since not having the jab, he hasn't had flu. As we get older, surely we must have come into contact with many of these viruses, and have developed our own natural acquired immunity. I don't get flu......and even when I was exposed to people with flu(when working in hospital) I didn't get it. I sometimes get a head cold, but that is vastly different from real honest to goodness 'flu'. |

In a study published in The Lancet, 2.7 percent of over 13,000 unvaccinated adults while 1.2 percent of vaccinated adults caught the influenza virus . That means that the vaccine prevented 1.5 of every 100 adults from getting sick—a far cry from the 60% efficacy claim the media touts. (Flu Shot Worsens H1N1 Symptoms, New Research Reveals) Presumably the 1.5 of every 100 referred to is arrived at by subtracting 1.2 from 2.7. Surely what we should be doing is saying the vaccine prevented 1.5 fewer people getting the disease in every hundred so its efficacy is 1.5 divided by 2.7 - the number of unvaccinated per 100 who got ill. As a percentage that is 55.55 - not far from the "60% efficacy claim the media touts". |

Re: vaccine shot
Yes, of course it does Gordon....the strains of flu that are considered by the pharma companies(possibly guided by info from WHO) to be the biggest risk are the ones incorporated into the vaccine...so if you have the vaccine and get the flu, then you must have got a strain that wasn't covered by the vaccine.
And the viruses can mutate over the 'Flu season' as well, which is also one of the reasons why you may still get flu even if you had the vaccination. |

Aluminum enhances the immune response — But aluminum has also been linked to Parkinson’s,Alzheimer’s disease etc :eek: Formaldehyde is used to kill and preserve bacterial toxins and make viruses unable to reproduce. Its also listed as a carcinogen by government scientists and warnings are issued about formaldehyde exposure from fumes emanating from plywood and particle board and for workers exposed to it in funeral homes,salons etc. But yet formaldehyde and its chemical brother, formalin, is still in alot of vaccines.maybe your right and it is removed before packaging i dunno :confused: my point is there's to much controversy surrounding vaccines for me just to pop up an get my jab/s just because my GP says its 'vaccine time' especially considering my good health status (touch wood) :) |

Also chrisSJ, your figures are from a report by a moron who tested on 42 ferrets and came to these shattering conclusions -valid experiment, do you think? So far the only 'controversy surrounding vaccines' you've shown so far has come from the lunatic fringe- show us some serious studies from a reputable medical body which support your claims and we may listen. As for aluminium and formaldehyde- have you seen how much fluid is in a flue vaccine? You'd probably have to have the whole countries flue jabs before you got a significant amount. |

Re: vaccine shot
maybe they are friutcakes,morons etc but fact is Every year they guess which flu bug might crop up, and we’re all supposed to line up arms at the ready(sod that for a game of soldiers). A few years ago didnt they said whoops, we got it wrong, come in for another jab of a different mix.A couple of years ago they said were all going to die a horrible nasty deaths if we didn’t get that ‘human, pig, bird’ flu jab. I didn’t see anyone die or get sick.did any get sick and die from the vaccine?
Is it true these drug manufacturers pay out to exempt them from any damage liability for these vaccines? i wonder why |

I have no problem with anyone that wishes to take a different route to so called conventional medicine until they try to encourage others to join them, or even worse discourage others from using them with crackpot theories.
Perhaps Susie had 40 years of doctor free life because she was vaccinated? Without them she, I and many others may not be here today? Feel free to prove me wrong, don't use them, live long and prosper, if you can. I'm happy whenever my Doctor recommends something to think for myself but take his advice because he studied his trade. |

theres a theory were immune from flu and that Flu symptoms are exactly the same as acidosis. a virus can turn into a bacterium, a bacterium into a fungus and back again, It’s called polymorphism and it is inspired by changes in pH. As opposed to monomorphism, which is related to Pasteur’s Germ Theory, which even he admitted was wrong (and modern medicine is all but based on) Bottom line: Interier terrain creates the conditions you’re feeling, not some external force. And finally, a virus cannot survive in an PH environment, so goodbye old acidosis terrain, start eating real food lol |

Re: vaccine shot
I have the flu jab even though i am only 42 , i have only had it twice though since i "died " on the treadmill in Blackburn hospital testing to see if my heart had been damaged through sport and it had. I collapsed and my heart stopped , if i had been anywhere else when it happened, and the docs said it could have happened at anytime under strain i would have been dead.One op later stent fitted for a collapsed artery and she's running like a clock .I have the jab because i dont want to risk the strain on my body if i dont have it , and get the flu. And so far so good.:)
