Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: RE: RE: RE: The Flu, shots, and the Dome Meditation
Buck, my pneumonia came back when I stopped taking the antibiotic. But the homeopathic cough syrup totally got rid of it. Doctor told me I wasn't contagious so I went to program in the town flying hall. Sugar free lozenges kept coughing in check and if not, then I was only 3 blocks from home so could easily transfer myself. Last autumn I drank echinecea tea and that and healthier eating habits kept me from getting sick at all til the pneumonia this past August. Anyway, the flu shots have both mercury and aluminum in them and aren't necessarily helpful for the current flu happening. This is a controversial position on it.

Okay that is an excellent scientific reason [herd-immuniity] to help with the Fairfield meditating community and the Dome numbers. But, is there really a significant good scientific reason to not get flu shots? [Some people claim we are getting over-shot and it screws up the immune system giving rise to so many modern hyper immune system malfunctions.] Give flu shots anyway to everyone going to the Domes to help keep the aggregate Dome meditation numbers high as they can Be? -Buck, stuck at home meditating. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com wrote: But always remember that when you get a flu shot, it's not just to protect yourself, it's to protect others as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herd_immunity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herd_immunity emilymaenot wrote: Nothing.

Yes, anti-vax positions are highly controversial, mostly because they're based on ignorance. For example, you get far more mercury from eating a piece of fish than from getting a flu shot. The amount in a flu shot is negligible. Same with aluminum. Babies get far more aluminum in breast milk than in a flu vaccine. As to the current flu happening, note that there are many different strains of flu happening in any given season. It's very rare, however, that a seasonal flu vaccine will miss the more significant strains of flu virus circulating in that season.

Folks might want to check to see if there are any flu-shot clinics in the vicinity. According to Google Maps, Hy-Vee has them: Our Pharmacy is offering flu shots on most weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. during cold and flu season. For more details, contact our pharmacy at 641-472-4119. The cost of a flu shot is $25, but may be submitted to insurance for the co-pay price, or Medicare covers 100% of the cost of a flu shot. Remember it takes two weeks for the shot to become effective, so the sooner you get one, the better.

I was referring here to Fairfield specifically, but anybody can type flu shots followed by their city and state in the Google Maps search box (or just on Google.com) and get a list of flu shot clinics in their area.

Flu shots are as much use as tits on a bo' hog. Meaning a boar hog, a male, who does not suckle the young, meaning of no use whatsoever. The strains of flu in the shot are almost never the strains that are actually going around - it is however one big ass scam on the part of Big Pharma, who additionally says its the people who have compromised immune systems who really really need the shots - which is a god damn lie. I have known a number of people including siddhas who had problems like lyme disease who got the flu shot at their doctors insistence and their health went downhill like a rocket.

RE: Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: RE: RE: RE: The Flu, shots, and the Dome Meditation
I spent about a half an hour looking through this site and found over a dozen red flags as to its reliability, including the qualifications of its founder (no medical qualifications), the questionable legitimacy of an organization on whose board he sits, cherry-picking of research, misleading summaries of research abstracts, etc., etc., etc. I don't have time today to itemize the red flags, but I'll see if I can get to it tomorrow. I wouldn't trust this Web site any further than I could throw it. Take the first sentence of the article on the site that Share links to: Annually we receive warnings from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) of an impending influenza epidemic. Ooo, scary! But what this refers to are the standard announcements about the regular seasonal outbreak of flu. Technically it's an epidemic, but it happens every year and is expected. I didn't have the time to look into the site's sponsors, but at the top of the list is Joseph Mercola's Web site, Mercola.com. That in itself is enough to sound a loud warning siren: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Mercola http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Mercola More tomorrow if I can get to it.
