Nat’l Acad. of Sciences: Flu Vaccine Recipients Shedding More Flu Virus

Nat'l Acad. of Sciences: Flu Vaccine Recipients Shedding More Flu Virus. Images of the avian flu virus

According to new research, the findings showed that those individuals who had received the flu vaccine are “shedding” 6.3 times more virus than the unvaccinated!

That is the most likely answer to why more people were sick the winter of 2017/2018 and dying from the flu. And I’m not making this stuff up!

The most recent (Dec. 2017) research from the National Academy of Sciences shows evidence:

1. That the vaccinated are “shedding”/spreading more virus simply by breathing.

2. That prior vaccination has weakened the immune systems of those who got the shot.

3. Individuals who receive the flu vaccine are placing others around them at greater risk than the unvaccinated.

4. The vaccine doesn’t protect one from infection.

Note: Election to membership in the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) is considered one of the highest honors that a scientist can receive. NAS is one of the world’s most-cited and comprehensive multidisciplinary scientific journals, publishing more than 3,200 research papers annually. The journal’s content spans the biological, physical, and social sciences and is global in scope.

In case you doubt the veracity of this research, “nearly 500 members of the NAS have won Nobel Prizes, and the National Academy of Sciences, founded in 1914, is today one of the premier international journals publishing the results of original research.” (source)

What research says about viral shedding:

“Self-reported vaccination for the current season was associated with a trend (P < 0.10) toward higher viral shedding in fine aerosol samples; vaccination with both the current and previous year’s seasonal vaccines, however, was significantly associated with greater fine-aerosol shedding. We observed 6.3 (95% CI 1.9–21.5) times more aerosol shedding among cases with vaccination in the current and previous season compared with having no vaccination in those two seasons.” (source)

Are you thinking about getting a flu shot? 

FACT: Higher viral shedding: those flu vaccinated were breathing out more flu virus and are spreading it more than the unvaccinated.

So when health authorities like the CDC promote the flu vaccine by saying things like “the vaccine protects you and those around you,” “everyone needs the vaccine because of ‘herd’ immunity,” or “you have to get the vaccine to protect the elderly, the very young, and the weakened cancer patients”, etc., would they be telling you the opposite of the truth?

FACT: 6.3 times more aerosol shedding:

• those vaccinated were spreading more flu virus into the air around them simply by breathing as compared to those who hadn’t received the flu vaccine that same year and/or the flu vaccine from the previous year

• those vaccinated pose a greater risk to the elderly, the very young and immune-compromised cancer patients by shedding, and that the unvaccinated spread the disease less and protect others better

Thus the vaccine does the exact opposite of what people have been told and explains why we are seeing more and more people get sick earlier each year and more people die from the flu.

FACT: Reduced protection with annual vaccination. The flu vaccine weakens a person’s immunity against infectious illness.

This fact has been shown with multiple studies on children Vaccinated vs. Unvaccinated Children: Guess Who Is Healthier?

And this study is particularly disturbing:

Effectiveness of trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine in influenza-related hospitalization in children: A case-control study which found that children receiving the annual flu vaccine had a “threefold increased risk of hospitalization.”

FACT: “Prior immunity” promotes lung inflammation. Dr. Dale Brown, the Wild doc explains it this way, “Now I wanted to explain this part so that people wouldn’t be misled. Immunity and vaccination are not synonymous, in fact, this study provides the very evidence to prove that vaccinations like the influenza vaccine don’t provide immunity, hence the vaccinated being infected and spread (shedding) it more. The correct wording should have read that “prior VACCINATIONS promote lung inflammation” as this fact has been shown in animal studies.

This means that when you receive a flu vaccine, the lungs are damaged. Hence the scientific term/phrase “vaccine-associated enhanced respiratory disease” which in animal studies has shown that flu vaccinations damage lung tissue of the vaccinated and distort or weaken the natural immunity of the host, person or animal.

Could this be just one more reason more people are developing severe lung diseases like COPD or why the rates of asthma in America are increasing in the vaccinated?” (source)

This is SO interesting for us medical geeks!

And wait! Vaccinating against flu to protect elderly and others is shown NOT effective!

A 2016 review of all published research on flu vaccination of the people working with some of the most vulnerable among us, nursing home residents, found that there was no protective effect of flu vaccines. In short, the claim that vaccinating yourself against flu protects others from the flu is contradicted by the evidence!

“Our review findings have NOT identified conclusive evidence of benefit of HCW [healthcare workers] vaccination programmes on specific outcomes of laboratory-proven influenza, its complications (lower respiratory tract infection, hospitalisation or death due to lower respiratory tract illness), or all cause mortality in people over the age of 60 who live in care institutions. [….] This review does not provide reasonable evidence to support the vaccination of healthcare workers to prevent influenza in those aged 60 years or older resident in long-term care institutions (LTCIs). “

Elderberry Is Protective Against Flu Shedding (also for immunocompromised)

To learn more about how elderberry shows protection against:

• Avian flu (H5N1) (research here)

• influenza A and influenza B (research here)

• prevents H1N1 virus (Swine Flu Pandemic Strain) (research here)

• the H9N2 subtype which is high on the list of candidates for next pandemic (research here)

Learn how:

• to make elderberry syrup

• to make elderberry tincture

• to identify elderberries in the wild and grow elderberries for your own yearly crop

• elderberries hold hope for pandemics and the immunocompromised

Those trying to teach about vaccine dangers have only one motivation: to prevent more suffering. We have either witnessed it first hand in our own family or know those who have.

We must question what doctors and government tell us before many more children and families are harmed….(possibly yours!)

Hi! I’m Jacqueline!

Thanks for being part of this journey with me.
Welcome to my own little place on the internet! Home is where I love to be. I feel there is no greater place to incubate souls. These days you’ll find me using my experiences here to write about herbal remedies and natural health research — a big passion of mine. But being a wife and mother is not easy. It is challenging and potentially lonely. I get that. I wanted to create a place to connect with and support other moms for creating a natural, healthy, and fulfilling home life.

    Excellent article, Jacqueline. We don’t have a medical background, but we have witnessed the truth in this post for ourselves.
    I’ve NEVER taken a flu shot, and only once in my 65 years did I have the flu. On the other hand, my husband worked where he was required to have the shot. and every time he got the shot he also got the flu. Reality turned the light bulb to come on for us. I pray the masses will wake up.
    Thank you for sharing your expertise with your readers.
    Pinned.

      Hi, Toni!! I have missed you so much! I really wish we lived close so we could sit on the porch and visit. Tell Goodman hi for me and i will pray he doesn’t get the flu (or the shot) this year!
      Many blessings in the name of the Lord! 😀

    We have never gotten the vaccination and we’ve never had the flu. I’ve even volunteered in a nursing home during an epidemic. I believe a healthy diet, herbs and of course elderberry syrup are better for my family. We try to keep our diet low in sugar, but if I know we’ve been exposed to something I cut all refined sugar because I’ve read studies that it lowers the immune system for 4-6 hours after consumption.

    I am Alexes Heche, i purchased chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) herbal remedy from a herbal health clinic in Johannesburg (Natural Herbal Garden), it really helped me. I was diagnosed of COPD in Elisabeth-bruyère Hospital Ottawa Canada in August 2014. In June 2016, I had COPD exacerbation, my condition worsened and the doctors could not help me, the Flovent HFA and antibiotics prescribed stopped working, it was a terrible experience i had, so my wife reached out for an alternative treatment. My wife’s co-worker who had initially bought pulmonary fibrosis herbal remedy from Natural Herbal Gardens referred us to them for help. We contacted them via their website and purchased the COPD herbal remedy, i immediately commenced usage as soon as i received it, it worked miraculously, my airways are repaired. Visit naturalherbalgardens . c o m I did promised i will post my experience as many forums as possible if i am cured, that i am doing now.

      Alexes, it would be neat to know the herbs that were used in the remedy. God has given us amazing gifts from His garden and all we need to do is find them and use them (safely with knowledge!)
      Thank you for sharing your experience!

    My mother’s caregiver gave into pressure and got the flu vaccine at the drug store in November 2019. I was very anxious about this because she came to work less than 8 hours later AFTER having an adverse reaction to the vaccine! Praise God my mother did not become sick with any influenza that season but passed away from natural causes two months later. This is a real problem for caregivers of the elderly when the hospice RN is telling us “flu season is coming and everyone should have their flu shot!” I had to bite my lip and just smile at her knowing that the vaccine would in fact put the patient at greater risk.

      MB, I am sorry to hear about your mother’s passing.
      You are so right, MB! They take it right into their compromised patient! It breaks my heart to think how many have been compromised or sickened by the shedding of the virus by vaccinated loved ones or care givers.
      Thank you for your comment!
