I have not had a flu or pneumonia shots since 1980. I have not had the flu or colds for all these years. I was told by my doctor back then not to have them. I am glad he so advised me. By the way I'll be 82 April 1st.

After I got the shot the nurse handed me the paperwork that comes with the vaccination. When I got home I read it and one of the side effects listed was Transverse Myelitis. I didn't know what the heck that was......until I became paralyzed, was diagnosed and did an internet search. My suggestion? Read the paperwork BEFORE you get the vaccination and then make your decision as to whether or not you want that shot. Flu vaccines contain a full dose of mercury plus brain damaging aluminum. I think it was the mercury that did me in because I have no problem with my brain. Elderly who receive the shot for five years increase their risk of Alzheimers disease 10-fold (1,000 %). I got that paralyzing flu shot ten years ago and haven't had a flu shot since. And.....I haven't had the flu for the past ten years. I boost the heck out of my immune system with vitamins/minerals and it works for me..... also haven't had a cold, pneumonia, bronchiatis, etc. I used to get bronchiatis so bad every winter that I was down in bed for 2-3 weeks. I'm so glad those days are over.....! Don't even get me started on infant vaccines and what they are doing to our children. ~ Lynn
