http://www.naturalnews.com/034092_universal_flu_shot_vaccines.html"(NaturalNews) The medical community is in the process of unveiling a "universal" influenza vaccine that it claims will prevent all flu strains with a single jab. The only problem is that, in the process, the system has inadvertently admitted that current flu shots are medically useless because they fail to target the correct flu strain in many cases, and they do not stimulate a natural flu-fighting immune response even when the strain is a match.
A recent report by CBS 11 News in Dallas / Fort Worth explains that researchers from the University of Texas (UT) Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas have identified a compound they say spurs the growth of a key protein known as REDD-1, which prevents cells from becoming infected. By injecting this compound into patients, REDD-1 will increase, say the researchers, and thus effectively prevent any strain of flu from taking hold.
But what about current flu vaccines? Dr. Beatrice Fontoura, one of the head researchers involved with the new universal flu shot, explained to CBS 11 that it works differently than current flu shots because it "stimulates our own (immune) response which is already there and boost it to fight an infection."
In other words, flu shots being sold today at pharmacies across the country do not actually promote natural immunity at all, which begs an important question. If current flu shots do not boost the immune response, then what, exactly, are they good for?
Not much, according to a recent study published in The Lancet. Though the mainstream media widely reported that the study's findings showed an effectiveness rate of 60 percent for flu shots, actual data in the study reveal that flu shots help about 1.5 out of every 100 adults. This, of course, translates into a measly 1.5 percent effectiveness rate (http://www.naturalnews.com/033998_i...).
And yet, for years, medical professionals everywhere have been hounding the public to get their flu shots or else face horrific sickness and even death. And those who continue to avoid the flu shot based on concerns about its safety and effectiveness have been routinely dubbed "anti-science," or worse.
Ironically, the CBS 11 piece about the universal flu shot also contains an interview with a woman who admits that she stopped getting the flu shot because it made her sick every single year. Once she stopped getting flu shots, she stopped getting the flu. So why, again, do we even need a universal flu shot?

If you truly are concerned about your health, simply stay physically active and maintain healthy eating habits. There is no need for any vaccines or flu shots so long as you know how to properly care for your body.

The Last Racer If you truly are concerned about your health, simply stay physically active and maintain healthy eating habits. There is no need for any vaccines or flu shots so long as you know how to properly care for your body. Agreed. Taking care of yourself is way better. Besides, flu shots never worked for me, either, they just make the flu less worse.

Besides, flu shots never worked for me, either, they just make the flu less worse. Exactly, they don't do much for me either but the last time I had a flu shot was when I was in middle school. I still haven't had the flu so I don't really believe it is necessary to get those annual flu shots but people are so blinded by the media they truly believe that they are effective and I know countless of people that accept the vaccine and are still getting sick neutral
