Vaccine Anecdotal - sad story

Local hospital has a bunch of staff out with the flu, although they were all vaccinated for it last week and proudly showing off their " i got my flu shot" tshirt

Who tf volunteers for a vaccine that doesnt prevent you from getting the virus its intended for

This sums up my feelings on the vaccine pushers.

That's why Fauci and the NIH changed the definition of vaccine overnight in the fall of 2021 from its original action verb of "prevent" to now simply "protect." The simplest answer to your question is that it ISN'T a vaccine, it's a shot.

That's not true. For decades the flu vaccine (and others) has been known to have a certain rate where it actually prevents you from getting the flu and a another rate where it simply helps people to get better faster or to reduce symptoms etc. I've linked a random study regarding the 2016 flu vaccine but you can find similar studies and articles from any year you want.

Virus's mutate and change. Even if you make the perfect vaccine against the original strand of covid, if it mutates alittle bit, the effectiveness could be reduced. It happens all the time. This is known. It's not new.

Stopped reading here. No one in North America (prior to the clown years of Covid 2020-2022) ever called it the flu vaccine. You are either backfilling or ignorant, or C all of the above. Every human being called it the FLU SHOT.

The study I linked to that was performed before Covid literally calls it the "Influenza Vaccine".

Yes, people use the term "flu shot" but medically it has always been called a vaccine.

The “flu vaccine” is only for a specific flu strain that the same idiots pushing it predict will be the prevalent one for that season.

So What happens, people get other strains of the flu.

Kinda sorta. The flu vaccine still helps to reduce the chances of catching other strains, it's just not perfect. It's also not perfect against the main strain that it was created for. But it's better than not having it at all.

I have always been aware that the annual flu vaccine is based on a "guess" as to what variant of the flu virus will be prevelant that year. As such, it wouldn't necessarily prevent people from getting sick.

Having said that, my wife has always been susceptible to adverse reactions to any medication. She had an adverse reaction to the flu shot on back to back years about 15 years back and hasn't taken the flu shot since.

I quit taking the flu shot at that time, as well, and neither of us has had the flu, since.

Vaccines should be completely voluntary. My gut feeling is that giving infants dozens of vaccines is not without risk, and the there is no incentive to show that the vaccines could cause adverse effects.
