Don’t fall for flu shot hype

Beware of this common flu-season scam

You’re not safe till flu season is over.

And no, I’m not talking about your chances of getting sick.

I’m talking about all that scary flu-shot hype. It hits you on the head everywhere you go.

In the rush to sell more and more vaccines before the “season” officially ends, everyone has been deputized as a salesperson for Big Pharma.

I was given the scare-pitch in Walgreen’s — from the checkout clerk, no less — and all I was trying to do was buy some toothpaste(!)

Believe me, for the next three months you’ll be hearing more and more dire flu statistics coming at you from all directions.

And some information I just dug up is making it more important than ever that you duck and cover…

A shot in the dark

The media flu propaganda campaign starts every year around September. By January it reaches a fever pitch, roaring louder than the Seahawks fans.

And every year it’s basically the same story.

Here are some of the ‘high points’ of the past ten flu seasons:

• 2003 — described by The Mayo Clinic as the “worst” flu season in 30 years.
• 2008 — called the “worst” one in four years (an improvement of sorts, maybe because it was the year when the CDC actually admitted the flu vaccine didn’t work).
• 2011 — yet another flu season reported to be the “worst seen in years.”
• 2012/13 — a real doozy. We were said to be “in the grip” of three epidemics, making it the “worst in a decade.”

And this year?

Funny you should ask. Because once again we’ve been told it’s the midst of the “worst flu season” in years.

Are you starting to see a pattern here?

The goal is to convince you to do just one thing: get a flu shot.

The CDC propaganda that people — especially the elderly — are dropping like flies every year from the flu is pure fantasy. The truth is… they don’t know how many deaths are due to the flu. And they can’t show us one life the vaccine has saved.

It’s all a big fat guess and they say so right on the CDC web site(!)

And that isn’t brand new information either. One expert sounded the alarm over 30 years ago.

A voice in the wilderness

At one time, there was a very smart and brave man working at the FDA. His name is J. Anthony Morris, Ph.D.

Morris was the head of the Bureau of Biologics, the department where vaccines are developed.

In 1976 he went on the Phil Donahue Show (remember Phil Donahue?!) and told the public that the Swine Flu vaccine was dangerous, didn’t work, and people shouldn’t take it.

So the FDA did what they do in these situations. They fired him.

Happily retired and now 94 years old, when asked what he would most like to tell the American people, Morris said: “Tell them I do not take the flu shot.”
