Default I Had The Swine Flu

I can tell you it was not fun. About 2 weeks ago I got sick, fever-chills, cough and then got better. About 4 days after that I went down a lot worse and basically had about 5 days straight of a 101ish fever that didn't break and sweating through absolutely everything. Probably changed clothes 3 to 4 times a day and twice at night. Forget sheets, I slept on towels and wrapped my pillows in towels. I will say to anyone thinking about getting the vaccine that they should consider it. It sucked. Feeling better now, but they put me on antibiotics to make sure I didn't get a secondary infection while my immune system was down. Finally able to get back to work.

No they should not consider getting the vaccine. Glad you're ok though.

I agree, the RN's and MD's at my school are highly against it. At this point more negatives then positives.

Look I just said to consider it, I have no need to get it now and I'm not telling people to get the vaccine, but if you are pregnant woman you should consider mainly b/c of early child birth if you get the flu.

Mind you I doubt there are many pregnant women trolling the site.

Made in China. At your own risk.

I know when it comes out and I have a hankerin for some:

mercury, one of the most potent toxins known;

aluminum, another potent neurotoxin (like mercury) that has a synergistic effect with mercury to cause more damage that either alone;

squalene, safe when ingested, powerfully dangerous when injected. can wreck the immune system and set off all sorts of inflammatory reactions;

ammonium sulfate, GI, nerve, liver and respiratory poison;

beta-propiolactone, a known carcinogen;

latex, good fun for those allergic to it;

MSG. Yes, that's right, monosodium glutamate. This stuff causes your neurons to fire at about 1000x it's normal rate, which usually ends up in that neuron dying;

formaldehyde, the stuff they use to embalm things with. causes damage to multiple systems through the body;

polysorbate 80, another known carcinogen;

tri (n) butylphosphate, kidney and neuro toxic;

glutaraldehyde, known to cause birth defects!

phenol/phenoxyethanol (2-PE), commonly used as an antifreeze and known to cripple the immune systems primary response mechanism.

I'll be first in line!

BTW, the CDC's actual projected death rate from this is less than 2 in 100,000 that become infected, making it one of the least dangerous flu bugs in modern times.

Many people of the Asian persuasion wear protective masks on the busses and trains here. I decided tonight it is probably a cultural thing but maybe not so bad of an idea these days. I really cannot afford to get sick.

Yeah, interesting video.

Of course, that one in a million stat they say is a lie.

What happened to her is almost certainly mercury poisoning.

Default Doctors speak out AGAINST vaccines

After watching the news Sunday morning on tv (big mistake), and seeing sheep...errr people lining up for HOURS to get themselves and their children vaccinated, I felt compelled to share this video. Needless to say, this side of the story was NOT in the news reports:
