A way to teach the unteachable

[Guest guest]

I like to use this simple recent reference. The AAP recently told

physicians that 20,000 people die each year, while the CDC was

claiming 36,000 (the CDC still does too). Below you will have

statistics for 2001-2005 on the actual number of flu deaths. As far

as I know 2006 has not even been released yet.

(for the above link go to page 33)

AND in 2005 there were 1,806 deaths reported. So, for a quick

overview there were the deaths reported as follows by the CDC:

2001 - 257

2002 - 727

2003 - 1,792

2004 - 1,100

2005 - 1,806

The majority of all of these deaths were in people over the age of 75

years old. Now, compare those reported figures with this claim below.

http://www.cdc.gov/flu/keyfacts.htm

Now, what is truly amazing is that I've had the pro-vax cult tell me

that those reported figures are not actually accurate! Why? They

tell me that many die from secondary pneumonia!! No, the flu is the

flu and this is just one excellent example of the bogus crap the CDC

is feeding the public.

I do like that term pro-vax cult. Haven't many cults throughout

history sacrificed their " own " for a certain belief? And here they

were calling us an anti-vaccination cult (which is where I got the

idea)....only we are not willing to sacrifice our own for the bogus

herd!! There is a difference.
