actually some vaccines contain whole attenuated viruses. i n either case you dont have much to worry about, these attenuated viruses or parts or subunits can not cause and harmful effects to you. it just triggers your immune response. now the whole autism and vaccine link can be argued which i dont believe in.Originally Posted by kdawg

No, it doesn't - it only has parts of the virus - that's enough for your body to produce antibodies. You don't actually get infected with the virus - although for some vaccinations that actually happens.

even more proof to my stance not to take it... you can't avoid the common cold anyways and I can't remember coming across the flu (fever, chills, night-sweats etc) in about the same amount of time as you and I know I haven't had a flu shot in the last 5yrs for sure... knock on wood... hygiene and general health precautionsOriginally Posted by kdawg
A runny nose and watery eyes isn't the flu - you've just had a minor cold which happens to most people a couple of times a year.Originally Posted by r33p04s
as best as my memory serves I've never had a flu shot... never understood why people ran out for it every year simple precautions seem to work fairly well and when I have caught the flu/cold it's nothing more than sneezing runny nose and watery eyes for a few days... hit it with some vitamin C and it's all better
the virus gets stronger and immune to those vaccines every year so you're done anyways so why not just suck it up and let you're God given immune system handle it?
I get a flu shot because it costs me about $15 and saves me having a week off work - I'm self employed so wouldn't want that and who wants 3 or 4 days of that terrible chills and fever thing?
The companies who make the vaccine each year spend a lot of time choosing the strain that will be in it - usually 3 strains which they think are going to be the ones that will commonly affect people. You're right that the virus changes over time - but that's why they change the vaccine and why you need a new one each year. The vaccine is only parts of the shell of the virus too so you can't be infected from it - any discomfort is just due to being injected with something.
I've had the shot every year for the last 5 and I haven't had a single bout of flu in that time - before that I had a good bout every couple of years which was just miserable.

wrong.Originally Posted by devildog1776
The shots are laced with preservatives that are toxic to your body. These shots overtime breakthrough your nervous system causing side effect later on in life or instantly in sum cases. Thermisol and mercury isn't something that belongs in the central nervous system . Please do your research on the ingredients and what that means for yourself and the people around you. Don't think that these shots are in your best Interest. I haven't had a flu shot in over 7 yrs and I've caught the flu like once. wasn't even that serious.
If you take care of your body your body will take care of you.

So far only one disease, smallpox, has been eradicated by vaccines, savingapproximately 5 million lives annually.
Polio could be next. Over 80% of the world's children are now beingimmunized against the polio virus, and the annual number of cases has been cutfrom 400,000 in 1980 to 90,000 in the mid-1990s. If the year 2000 goal oferadicating polio is achieved, the United States will be able to save the $270million a year that is currently spent on polio vaccination. The savings forWestern European countries will amount to about $200 million a year.
Measles, currently killing 1.1 million children a year, is another possiblecandidate for eradication. Once high levels of routine immunization have beenachieved, national immunization days, followed by close monitoring and'blitzing' of any outbreaks, can eliminate the disease.
In all, vaccines have brought seven major human diseases under some degreeof control - smallpox, diphtheria, tetanus, yellow fever, whooping cough, polio,and measles.

the only staff they had at the immunization clinic were the people giving the shots - there weren't any doctors available.Originally Posted by FedExciter
Why did u come and ask NT instead of asking the doctor while you were there?
