Many people are rushing out to get a dose of the flu vaccine, as
the supposed number of flu deaths a year is an estimated 36,000.
However, new evidence shows a major flaw in these numbers.
One critic determined to expose the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) and vaccine manufacturers for falsely instilling
fear in people, has found the truth behind the “statistics.”
According to the CDC’s most recent death statistics located
on their Web site, influenza and pneumonia killed 62,034 people
in 2001. That means, in light of the current statistic, that just
over half of those deaths resulted from the flu. This however is
far from true.
Upon further investigation of the Web site, the actual number of
deaths caused by the flu came to 257, with pneumonia accounting
for the remaining number of deaths.
The question in everyone’s mind is: What’s the real truth?
Critics suggest the answer lies in the CDC’s misleading warnings
of the dangers linked to the flu, as well as their “recipe”
for increasing flu shot demands. The ingredients include:
Moreover, significant profits are generated through the manufacturing,
distributing and administrating of the flu vaccine. Sales from 2003
reached $332.4 million dollars, which only accounted for the manufacturing
aspect of the vaccine.
Even more shocking, is the information the CDC posted on their
Web site based on their own studies. They believe the flu vaccine
to only be 16-63 percent effective against the flu. With this data
in mind, critics conclude the flu vaccine to be pretty much worthless.
In response, the CDA claims that their study did not imply the vaccine
to be completely ineffective.
Lastly, the majority of influenza vaccines distributed in the United
States contain Thimerosal. This methyl mercury based preservative
has been linked to autism, Alzheimer’s, and ADD. According
to studies, the FDA is allowing vaccines with small amounts of Thimerosal
to go undisclosed with labels claiming them to be “preservative-free.
“
The CDC’s target group for the flu vaccine last year was people
over 65, or people with chronic medical conditions. This year their
focus will center on children ages two and under.
