Believe it or not, that's actually normal, and much less severe than actual infection. That's your primary immune response at work, so that if you actually get infected, your secondary immune response will hopefully quickly eradicate the infection.

The CDC did a poor job of explaining this early on, when the COVID vaccine was reducing spread with earlier variants that were not as contagious as current ones. So I get the confusion. But if you’re able to utilize Google, it shouldn’t be hard to know different at this point.

That or we desperately need more basic science classes in schools.

I did search it. The first three pages were no help. That’s why I asked here.

They had the flu shot people come to the office a couple of weeks ago. One guy was going to get it and asked me if I was. Nope. Never have, never will. Same dude left work later that day due to the flu shot making him sick.


The flu shot doesn’t give you the flu.

It stimulates your immune system and that’s your immune response. It’s teaching your body how to handle that flu strain should you encounter it later so you have less severe symptoms.

All anyone needs to know is they had to change the defintion of vaccine because of the not real vaccine

Nothing else needs to be said. If you think thats normal you are probably a dirty blood

Some vaccines are sterilizing. Some are not. It depends on the virus itself.


Fair enough. I know that’s the case with West Nile vaccine in horses. But that’s fully explained by the manufacturer unlike the Covid vaccine which was lauded (at least by the MSM) as the end of the China flu. Remember the narrative? “Get the vaccine. Covid ends!!” A bit disingenuous don’t ya think?

Polio is normally mild even if you aren't vaccinated. It's the small chance of actually being paralyzed that the vaccine is protecting you from

Everything we’re getting from our company calls it the flu vaccine (instead of flu shot like it’s always been), and now there are waivers and consent forms.

So like it l=always has been for my entire 60 years on this earth?

No, actually, it hasn't. You just haven't paid attention.

My point is simply:

The term flu shot is gone now from all emails urging people to get protected…it’s now flu vaccine and I’m commenting on it.

Agreed. Sounds eerily similar to another virus and it’s vaccine

Normally mild, small chance of being dangerous, vaccine helps protect against severe case…..

Hmmmmm

The definition of vaccine has always remained the same. The people who tried to persuade you about the effectiveness or lack thereof of the covid vaccine changed the definition to make a vaccine seem like a protective shield. Breakthrough infection is always possible, some vaccines (smallpox and polio) are better at preventing breakthrough infections than others (flu and covid)

Not a bad narrative AT FIRST since we've eradicated smallpox and nearly have eradicated polio and many other diseases because of vaccination programs. Now since covid mutates a lot, similar to the flu, it will be impossible to completely eradicate it

You do realize you contradict yourself in two sentences.

I don't know why so many people are so willing to just crap on anyone who points out that the definition of vaccine DID change with COVID to provide protection for both the government and Big Pharma.

Calling people morons for pointing this out is just absurd to me.

We KNOW the CDC changed the definition recently. Why is pointing that out so outrageous?

Well since polio will likely be eradicated because of the vaccine, the vaccine does protect against the disease. Not all vaccines are equal

because the new definition more accurately fits what vaccines have always been

I know you won't accept that, but if I gave you both the definitions in 2018 and asked you which more accurately fit the flu shot, which definition would you have chose?
