How can they be helping when so many recipients of said 'flu vaccines succumb to chest infections. The result is a trip to the local hospital for those with other health issues....double whammy. Tried to tell a relative in that category - caught a chest infection a few days following a flu jab. Sitting ducks in 'homes'. Happy New Year you stalwart, and thanks for getting this info out.

Influenza still isn't transmissible. We've known this for at least a 100 years.

No experiment has ever succeeded in getting it to reliably spread from one person to another. Or even between chickens for that matter. It was called 'Influenza' because no one could figure out what actually caused it. So it became something that was Influenza'd by the positioning of stars.

Another nice article.

We did an article recently after the claims that anti-vaxxers were perhaps responsible for the recent surge in measles by lowering vaccine uptake—as always, the figures didn't add up.

Thanks Mike. It's just another one of those narratives that is not to be discussed DESPITE the actual real world data. Makes you wonder who the real conspiracy theorists are eh?

Today's conspiracy theorists are the ones who wear masks instead of tin foil hats.

This comparison is actually insulting to tin foil hat wearers :)

There is literally more science behind the wearing of tin foil hats than the wearing of masks.

Tin foil does at least block microwaves, and microwaves are a real thing (unlike 'viruses'). So wearing a mask is more demented than even wearing a tin foil hat!

I always suspected there might be some legitimate benefit in literally wearing a tin foil hat. My sincerest apologies!

i was told years ago that foil (actual tin if poss) wrapped over bee hives will ensure the bees survive and can find their home without radio waves affecting them.

The scientific basis for wearing tin foil hats is a hill I'm willing to die on :)

Anyway, no need to apologise, I was actually strengthening your case for the lunacy of mask wearing.

I read somewhere the other day that they are proposing masks AND GOGGLES for the 'bird flu'. I think we should all add those twangy 'antenna' headbands too to complete the look.

Correlation may not be causation, but to ignore the fact more adults and children have been “vaccinated” this winter season and flu is more prevalent than ever speaks volumes. Remember 2019/20 and the severe respiratory illness then, just before flu vanished? What was the flu vax uptake in 2019? Waiting for what will come after this flu vanishes!

A Public Health Wales spokesman was attempting to gaslight the population two days ago by stating that the ‘crisis’ here in Wales was down to lower vaccination uptake.

He omitted to mention that pharmaceutical companies are sponsoring our annual immunisation conferences. But of course they only sponsor production and hospitality and have no influence upon proceedings apparently 🦄 🤨

Flu jab uptake rate for Wales at record levels so the panic will likely be this season fewer people taking jabs than then but likely in line with pre 'pandemic'. It's all a business at one level. I can see jab mandates for NHS shortly. No jab no job. https://biologyphenom.substack.com/p/newuk-covid-19-inquiry-22-nov-2024?utm_source=publication-search

Are the hospitalised overwhelmingly fully jabbed against covid? What is the betting they have not counted? Acute respiratory infections come every year and are only a nuisance unless you are already seriously impaired.

And what is the point in giving children live nasal spray with attenuation similar to influenza strains from 2 and 3 years ago - as recommended by the WHO? https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/15790/smpc/print

Good question Maurice. On that one, watch this space!

Trust the Evidence stack has an article on the F word. England and Wales lump all respiratory illnesses, including pneumonia and call them influenza-like-illnesses (as per chart above). The percentages of actual flu, A or B, is quite small in comparision to all the other ailments. I got the "flu" or maybe "covid" Jan 2020, after getting jabbed end of 2019. Not taken any needles in arm since and been fine.

The Patient Information Leaflet for Fluenz, the childhood nasal vaccination, says you cannot get the disease from the vaccine. But you are quite likely to get its symptoms. Quote:

Very common (may affect more than 1 in 10 people): runny or stuffy nose, reduced appetite, weakness

Common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people): fever, muscle aches, headache

I know it is not funny but the vaccine dealers make the snake oil salesman look like choir boys. Will the public ever wake up? I see the cell based flu vaccine (instead of the chicken egg ) is doing its job, they say it is grown in cultured cells of mammalian origin, so what debris is included from those cells I do not want to know.

Snake oil definition- ''worthless preparation fraudulently peddled as a cure for many ills.''

Yup, definetely fits the description Amat.

"Every season (except during the ‘COVID’ pandemic) prior to vaccinations there is no ‘flu’ and after millions of vaccinations administered there are massive surges in ‘flu.’"

This is what Dr Eleanor McBean PhD observed during the Spanish Flu. Only the vaccinated got sick. She was a child at the time and her parents were both doctors. They were one of the only families who refused all the shots. All the other doctors got the shots and they all got sick to so her (unvaxxed) parents had to cover for them too. They tended to the sick going door to door in winter with deep snow on the ground, but they did not get sick and they did not bring any flu home to 'infect' the children either.

It would be interesting to know the countries with no mass flu innoculation programme and their rates of flu.
