SHOW INTRODUCTION Which are you more afraid of? A flu pandemic or mandated vaccinations? What’s disturbing me is the huge money making machine that all of this represents. Fueled by studies paid for by the pharmaceutical industry and vaccine manufacturers that, because of their size, have prominence in medical journals even though their conclusions often don’t match the outcomes. But off it goes, despite the lack of good science, speeding downhill at breakneck speeds. And what about the track record of flu vaccines? Well, not so good if you look at any studies. Okay, what about the flu then. Again, the literature shows that the flu kills people at risk. And risk has to do with native health and exposures. Isn’t this mostly a public health crisis? Let’s get credible, health promoting information to populations at risk, improving the lot of the underserved. How does vaccinating children with a narrowly tested flu vaccine of a type that seldom works but may have troubling side effects serve? Gosh well, it does serve some people; just follow the money. Join us as we look into Swine Flu and whether you may be forced to vaccinate your family.
