THE CDC'S FLU VACCINE EFFECTIVENESS RESULTS
In September of 2012, I told you that the pharmaceutical companies had a vaccine for the West Nile Virus but refused to distribute it for humans since it was not a high dollar item for them. I have been paying closer than usual attention to the marketing of the drug companies since then. I have discovered that the drug companies buy advertising time on Obama's media sites, and a lot of it. Of course, they support the Progressives, that is nothing new. I have seen a massive advertising for the flu vaccine this season. The state run news media has almost caused panic in the streets, promoting the flu vaccine for the drug companies.
Did you get the message today that the Centers for Disease Control released it's study on the effectiveness of the flu vaccine? In people over 65, which is the group most targeted, the flu vaccine was 9% effective. Doctors have been told that when their patients get the vaccine and then get the flu, it is because the patient already had the flu but it just had not presented the symptoms until after they received the vaccine. I don't know if the well educated doctors believed that or not, but that is what they tried to convince their patients of.
Over all, this year's flu vaccine was reported to be 56% effective. That means that 46% of every American was better off, and kept more of their money, if they refused the flu vaccine. That includes the 91% of those over 65 years old.
What is really ironic, is that there was a hospital that was firing nurses who refused to buy into the hype and chose not to take the vaccine. It was January of this year when Indiana Goshen Hospital fired eight employees who refused to take the vaccine. Here is evidence that they should have a law suit. You see, this is just as bad as President Obama forcing Americans to purchase health insurance but giving it to illegal foreigners.
