Guest guest Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Have you considered Vitamin D? There was a story by Dr. Mercola where he promotes that 5000 iu's daily is what an adult needs to ward off the flu in place of the flu shot and argues that the flu shot doesn't always keep you from getting the flu anyway. Here's his link: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/10/21/avoid-flu-shots-vi\ tamin-d-is-a-better-way.aspx ________________________________ From: jlivelypdd <jlivelypdd@...> Sent: Monday, December 8, 2008 10:50:55 AM Subject: [ ] mercury free influenza vaccine - for me-undergoing chemo Hi all, I can't believe I'm actually considering this, but does anyone know the safety of the " preservative " mercury free influenza vaccines? I am undergoing chemo for breast cancer right now, so my white blood count gets very low. This frightens me during flu season. I'm considering getting this vaccine, but only if it is guaranteed to be mercury free. Any input is appreciated! Thanks! Jana Lively Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 The site www.novaccine.com has a list of all the U.S. approved vaccines (in each disease category), and a list of the ingredients. I have found a few mistakes, so if you're actually thinking of a vaccine I recommend using this as a first stop, then going directly to the company website and downloading the MOST CURRENT Package Insert. Some are package inserts are also available here (http://www.vaccinesafety.edu/package_inserts.htm) and here (http://emc.medicines.org.uk/) and here (Sanofi Pasteur only) (https://www.vaccineshoppe.com/index.cfm?fa=anon.piexpress) > > Hi all, > > I can't believe I'm actually considering this, but does anyone know the > safety of the " preservative " mercury free influenza vaccines?

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 There are so many other nasty things in vaccines besides mercury though. I wouldn't do it if it were me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I am with I believe that Vacines are of absolutly no value and are actually detremental to health in a lot of cases. We are being lied to on a grand scale. There is absolutly no proof that they even work. its a money making business. period > > Hi all, > > I can't believe I'm actually considering this, but does anyone know the > safety of the " preservative " mercury free influenza vaccines?

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 All I know is that my grandson was doing wonderful until he had the " preservative free " flu shot. He regressed within days and we are STILL not back to where he was pre-shot 2 years later......None of us will ever get one of them again! I am not sure that the regression was not worse than the original " vaccines " for school.....I am a real slow learner it appears................. Chris C. Mills: Freedom is not merely the opportunity to do as one pleases; neither is it merely the opportunity to choose between set alternatives. Freedom is, first of all, the chance to formulate the available choices, to argue over them -- and then, the opportunity to choose.
