It’s that time of year when the flu shot and now shingles shot are pushed on us like candy!

Do you even know what is in a flu shot or shingles shot? Probably not if you are like the millions of people who just assume the doctors know what they’re talking about so you go to your local doctor, even the corner drugstore where they hand them out like candy bars and don’t even question what the shot contains. This SCARES ME for many reasons.

We just assume the doctor knows best.

Why? I don’t get it!

You need to do your own research, ask questions, and don’t assume nothing and if the doctor or nurse practitioner gets irritated with you for asking questions RUN as fast as you can!!!!

What is the Flu and Shingles?

Influenza, or “the flu,” is a highly contagious viral infection of the respiratory tract (nose, throat and lungs). The flu is often confused with the common cold, but flu symptoms tend to develop quickly (usually 1 to 4 days after a person is exposed to the flu virus) and are usually more severe than the typical sneezing and congestion associated with a cold. is an infectious disease of birds and mammals caused by RNA viruses of the family Orthomyxoviridae, the influenza viruses Influenza is often accompanied with fever, headache, extreme tiredness, Dry cough, Sore throat, Runny or stuffy nose, Muscle aches, Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea are also common symptoms in children.

Shingles (Herpes Zoster) is an active generally short-lived viral infection of the central nervous system that affects certain areas of the skin. This usually starts with fever, fatigue, chills and sometimes intestinal upset. 3 to 4 days the affected area becomes very sensitive. On the 4th to 5th day small painful blisters erupt along the nerve pathway and crust over . Normally these heal without further problems, one attack usually provides the immune system immunity for life, however for the elderly pain can persist for months even years.

The virus that causes shingles is Varicella zoster which also causes chicken pox. If you have had chicken pox as a child this can leave many viruses dormant in sensory nerves (skin). If the immune system is compromised from illness, severe emotional stress, or long-term use of corticosteroids, the dormant viruses may become active and start to infect the pathways of the skin nerves, hence shingles. If you have shingles around the eyes or forehead consult and eye doctor immediately.

Among the many toxic flu shot ingredients, the one that some consumers know about – and this is quite widely discussed on Internet forums – is mercury. Almost all flu shots, as well as other vaccines, contain Thimerosal, a mercury disinfectant/preservative. Phenol which is a carbolic acid was used during the second world war as a means of rapid execution by the Nazis.

Formaldehyde is used for embalming is a known cancer causing agent and it can also cause allergic reactions. Aluminum is used as an additive to promote antibody response, Aluminum is widely associated with Alzheimer’s disease and has shown to cause seizures and cancer in laboratory mice.

There are solutions, you just need to educate yourself and family on what to do if you should get any of these viruses.
