Did you get a flu shot?

The article you cited referred to another article that says, "Flu vaccine stops influenza in only 1.5 out of 100 adults who get the shots" This is their analysis.

2.7 out of 100 got the flu if unvaccinated
1.2 out of 100 got the flu if vaccinated
1.5 out of 100 saved from flu

That sounds trivial. Let's assume the population is 300 Million in the US and redo the figures.

8.1 M out of 300 M gets the flu if everyone unvaccinated
3.6 M out of 300 M gets the flu if everyone vaccinated
4.5 M out of 300 M saved from flu

Not so trivial.

The above analysis was done by lab controlled subjects. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in the actual US population 5% to 20% develop the flu. This is quite different than the lab chosen population. More than 200,000 are hospitalized. About 36,000 die.

You fail to understand that many people get sick from the shot. Some have been irreparably harmed by it.

And you should know the CDC is no longer a trustworthy source. It like so many things in the age of American Kleptocracy, has been politicized.

The 'flu virus mutates all the time, and medical authorites are forced to make guesses about the most likely each year, so that sometimes the vaccination doesn't work and you get some other variant, that's all. Susceptible people here get it free, of course, and mostly it works.

I haven't seen any numbers on how many have side effects.

More damning information on the flu shot, if you care....

"Did Harry Reid take a flu shot? Did Barack Obama take a flu shot? Did Barack Obama’s lovely family take a flu shot? Did Joe Biden take a flu shot?”
Politicians have been known to impose things on the general public while exempting themselves from them, such as the recently passed and highly unpopular Obamacare.
For those who may be wondering where Michael Savage may be deriving his authority on the subject,Dr. Savage has a B.S. in Biology, M. A. in Anthropology, an M.S. in Ethnobotany, and a Ph D. in Ethnomedicine. He knows what he's talking about.
Dr. Savage is also the author of over 30 books, several of them #1 best-sellers, and many of them cover the topics of health and nutrition.
Savage went on to cast suspicion over the government's insistence that people get a flu vaccine every year.
“So they choose five strains out of 250-plus strains of Influenza A, and if they don’t choose the right one, you’re going to get sick,” he said. "So you’re putting your faith in the CDC’s ability to guess the one that might be a pandemic.”
Dr. Savage's objections to the vaccine, however, do not end there.
There are harmful ingredients in the vaccine itself, which even the CDC lists on its own website.
Savage adds:
"Formaldehyde is in the common flu shot. It's a known carcinogen. Another ingredient in the flu shot is a mercury containing a compound called thimerosol, which impairs neurological and immune systems. There are also detergents, antibiotics, chemicals, and allergens...that cause infertility - including other ingredients that are unsafe for human consumption."
The CDC, on the other hand, insists:
"The first and most important step is to get a flu vaccination each year. If you haven’t gotten vaccinated yet, you should still try to."
One has to wonder, however, if you're healthy and have never had complications of any kind, why must you get the flu vaccine? Why does the CDC insist so strongly when there is so much potentially hamrful material in the vaccine....and they insist you get the shot every flu season?
Michael Savage finishes with:
"The flu vaccine? No, I wouldn't take it." And later, he says, "Not everything your government tells you is true."

That is very odd. Another article in that same examiner.com website is promoting flu shots. Looks like we have a real controversy here.
