The Scary Truth About the New York City Flu Vaccine Mandate
Conclusion Families should not be forced to inject their child with toxic substances. They should not be forced to receive a vaccine that is ineffective and dangerous. They should not be forced to give up their preferred choice for quality, early childhood education and care programs in order to avoid forced vaccination. Families should be allowed to make the choices for their health and well-being that are best for their family. If your child attends day care or preschool in New York City, we urge you to contact your elected officials and tell them you are against forced vaccination for your child. In addition, you may ex...

You Won’t Believe Which Big-Name Groups are Opposed to Flu Vaccine Mandates
Conclusion Millions of people are refusing vaccines, in record numbers, as they realize that vaccines are dangerous and ineffective. Now, unions and professional organizations are joining the ranks of anti-vaxers, at least with regard to mandatory vaccination. Those organizations value their members and know that they deserve choices about their bodies and their health care. In return, those groups will be rewarded with a collectively healthier, more innovative work force, because their employees will not be forced to receive injections laced with toxic chemicals. Their employees will also know their ideas and opinions are...

Family Sues After Dangerous Flu Vaccine Causes Child to Become Severely Brain Damaged
Conclusion After reading realms of information about the flu shot and the many tragic cases of vaccine-injured children, including the sad case of Saba Button, in my opinion, a child is far more likely to suffer serious side effects from the flu vaccine than from the flu itself. However, despite the many children who have become seriously ill after various flu vaccines, the governments around the world continue to portray the flu vaccine as safe and effective. Many flu vaccines still contain thimerosal, an ingredient that is said to have been removed from vaccines from as far back as 2007. [9] Since that time, this dangero...

The author is Liliana Losada Brown, PhD, Associate Director, Scientific Programs at the Society for Women’s Health Research. Think back to the last time you got a shot.

Adults, children, pregnant women — everyone! –older than six months should get a flu shot every year. We all know the flu: the serious, contagious respira...

Why Big Pharma is bad for your health
Just take one and you’ll feel better. Promise (Image from shutterstock).On Wednesday I came down with a stinking cold. Loaded up with all the cold and ‘flu medication I could find on the pharmacist’s shelves I headed into the office where I found on my desk a pre-ordered copy of Ben Goldacre’s new book Bad Pharma: How drug companies mislead doctors and harm patients.I had read and enjoyed Goldacre’s previous book ‘Bad Science‘, an accessible and entertaining exploration of the world of medicine. I have not touched a homeopathic sugar pill or written an ill-informed scientific article since. Not that...

Silent Killers Amidst The Fast And The Furious
Attention to Ebola is important. The virus’s ability to easily cross regional and national borders makes it a significant threat to global health and national security. The swift and aggressive international response to the 2014 outbreak of the Ebola virus, which has killed at least 10,000 people in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea, has been laudable and has resulted in positive outcomes, such as reduced disease transmission and strengthened global health and coordination systems. For example, staff from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States, including those from various divisions at the Na...

Flu shots 101 and why YOU need one
I think everyone should get a flu shot, and if you haven’t had one yet now is the time.  The more people are vaccinated, the fewer chances everybody has of contracting the flu and passing it along to somebody who has a compromised immune system.  If you know and love a young adult cancer patient, get a flu shot.  If you don’t know one of us, do it for your elderly grandma, your infant nephew, or just because you care about the well being of a stranger.  Flu shots are not just about protecting yourself, they are about helping to protect your community. Lots of myths about flu shots prevent people from gettin...

Medical Chatbot Improves Patient Response Rate for Flu Shot Reminders
One of the continuing challenges in healthcare is developing techniques for communicating with patients in an efficient and effective way. The goal of such a conversation may be to remind them about an appointment or perhaps persuade them to take some action regarding their health. A recent article addressed a chatbot campaign launched by a physician office to increase patient response to flu shots (see:Chatbot campaign for flu shots bolsters patient response rate by 30%). A chatbot is a computer program which conducts a conversation via auditory or textual methods (see:Chatbot) Such programs are often designed...
