Oops, there is something wrong. I’ve never had a flu shot, and I never get the flu!

Me too. what a disappointment we must be to Pharma et al. Or, worse, what a challenge we must be.

Well that can be easily fixed. You just got to get the flu shot and then you get the flu. Easy peasy. Happens all the time.

I see they studied it for a whole 6 months and decided it is safe and could provide immunity in pigs for a decade…sure.. And they want to give it to kids?! Yeah right..no thanks!

Meryl, did you hear that the court ruled against the Ostrich farmers in rural BC yesterday? Their entire flock of over 300 healthy ostriches is to be culled and the farm owners are on the hook for $15,000 to pay the Canadian Food and Safety Inspection’s legal fees.

I took the flu "shot" for 10 years and contracted the flu every year... I stopped taking the flu "shot" in 2002, and have had the flu twice since then (2016 & 2017)... they can take their vaccines (all of them) and put them where the sun doesn't shine.

Last year, the Cleavland Clinic study showed the flu shots increased your chance of getting the flu by 26%.

In my case, it was 100%... Since I stopped taking ALL of their so-called "vaccines" in 2020, I haven't had much more than a sniffle in the last 5 years... whereas I had had a major sickness of some variety every year of my life up until then.... asthma, strep throat, flu... etc, etc,.

Just when you think "medicine" can't get any wackier... Are there people willing to take these injections still? Astonishing if there are.

Probably. They took the covid shot so why not. People still believe these save lives.

Thankfully most have stopped getting them. But yeah, I guess there will be a few still getting them no matter what.

Since nobody seems to care if a flu vaccine is effective the FDA should just pre-approve this before the research is complete. If they say it reduces the impact people will just believe it.

The current flu vaccine makes a person 26.9% more likely to contract the flu!

I say FAFO to NE for SURE! No state should want NI AID or any flu shot/other shots ever!

As mentioned about 50x the concept of this grift is one that will keep giving into eternity.

The "virus" of the day fraud in Hegelian fashion ALWAYS has the same solution.

"Researchers" discover another quaxcine that is so much better than every previous toxic failure.

It requires health illiterate people to accept and the Medical Cartel to promote.

We are at that threshold.

Confidence in the promoting cartel has never been less.

The % of people saying NO has never been higher.

Hence the panic.

Finland’s National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) can't cite scientific evidence of "H5N1"... or any virus it's “not at all possible”

Even I, who don't even play a doctor on tv, knows that a universal flu vaccine is medically impossible. Big Science, like all other large-scale collective human endeavors, couldn't find its bunghole even with its head up its ass.

I have that "Highway Cafe of the Damned" Lounge Lizards album, autographed.

U Tejas hipsters are all alike. "My kid went to school with (cool person X)." ;)

But seriously, I kinda envy you living in the Big T. I couldn't live there: it would hammer my HHT. But Texas is a nation unto itself, with ample room and an amazing diversity of geology, climate, and wildlife.

"A band of lawyers"... 'a coterie of accountants'... 'a boardroom of yes-men'... and of course, a murder of crows.

The beauty of formats like Substack is to disseminate information, and quell false beliefs.

It is working. Telegram, X, Truth Social are also mostly free speech.

What can go wrong? Some viruses have different epigraphs. Not a problem, as nobody believed a single vaccine could defend against all viruses. So multiple ones are always expected. How about the mutations? Some COVID-19 variants already have 20% or more differences from the original one. Therefore, it is possible for viruses to escape from control even if the vaccine is effective at the beginning. Although physiology of pigs and humans are similar, it is perhaps better not to raise the expectations too high.

except that you conflate Bioweapons with the non existent "virus"

Then suggest that maybe an effective mRNA (not a vaccine by definition)

might be useful. None are safe, none are effective.

Antibody titers are one piece in a immune system that remains

far to complex to understand.

Howz about going back to basics? That is what Science demands.

From the article alone, I am not able to tell it is an mRNA-based vaccine, although it can be.

Good sleuthing. For several years we were spoon fed the new Quaxcine tech.

It did not stick. Shameless promotions do not include that little detail on purpose. I have no evidence of this however the preponderance of evidence is always useful. The genecidal fools are in panic mode.

Strictly speaking, all the article says is about a formulation of common epigraphs as the basis for vaccine design. Duplicating the exact RNA sequence may not trigger the necessary action. It is the presence of the proteins produced by these RNA segments that causes problems and can be used as a vaccine (after some other qualifiers). The Novovax approach to the COVID-19 vaccine design does not have the typical problems of mRNA. Novovax design flaws in the aspect of being unable to catch up to the spike protein change due to gene mutation. But if a set of epigraphs can be found and judged to be mutating slowly, then their resultant protein can be used to build vaccines with a better chance of staying in effect for more years.

More and more about less and less. Commonly known as obfuscating is a strategy. For most of my life went down those rabbit holes.

It is very simple. Either one believes that health comes from needles or they realize how preposterous this concept. Not a stranger to tens of thousands of peer reviewed abstracts. Evidence convinced no fool.

They have created many dogs who chase their tails.

How can any vaccine induced stimulation of the blood based immune system ever create iGa antibodies that exist only in the mucosal immune system? There is little cross over of iGg antibodies induced by a vaccine injected into the arm, and the antibodies used by our mucosal immunity as our defence against respiratory viruses. Flu shots have always been a scam, as are any vaccines (given through an injection into the arm) against any respiratory virus.
