The first doses of the H1N1 swine flu vaccine are arriving at clinics and hospitals across the United States, and large numbers of Americans are eagerly lining up to take the vaccine. However, what most Americans do not realize is that these early batches of the H1N1 swine flu vaccine are all of the nasal spray variety that contain live swine flu. So, when you take the H1N1 FluMist vaccine, you are letting them spray live swine flu right up your nose.That's right.
Live swine flu.
If you are trying to avoid the swine flu do you really think that it is a good idea to have live swine flu injected up your nose?
Quite a few health experts are expressing concern about the safety of FluMist, and a number of U.S. hospitals are actually rejecting this nasal spray vaccine.
In particular, several Denver area hospitals have announced that they will not be using the FluMist swine flu vaccine because "they don’t want to endanger patients".
Supposedly the live swine flu has been "weakened", but health authorities are still recommending that babies, pregnant women and anyone over the age of 49 not take the nasal spray and wait for the swine flu vaccine shots which contain dead swine flu virus.
So just how much live swine flu is being inject into your nose when you take the FluMist swine flu vaccine?
According to Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, between 10 million and 100 million swine flu viral particles will be forcefully injected into the nostrils when FluMist is administered to a patient.
Do you really want millions of swine flu particles injected into your nose?
Do you really want millions of swine flu particles injected into your children?
But the much more frightening thing is that millions of Americans will have live swine flu injected into their nasal passages over the coming weeks, and they will instantly become carriers of the deadly disease. Whenever they sneeze or whenever they exhale they risk spreading the swine flu to others.
The reality is that anyone who takes the FluMist vaccine can spread the disease for up to 21 days.
In case you doubt this, just read FluMist’s own package insert: "FluMist® recipients should avoid close contact with immunocompromised individuals for at least 21 days."
So will the live swine flu in the FluMist nasal spray vaccine cause a massive outbreak of the swine flu in the weeks ahead? Only time will tell.
But let's hope not. Let's hope that the swine flu doesn't hit the world like a sledgehammer in the coming months.
But one thing is certain.
Spraying live H1N1 swine flu into the nasal passages of millions of Americans certainly is not going to help things.

ReplyDeleteThat's how vaccines work, moron.
It's live, attenuated virus which in its weakened state will cause a defensive reaction by your immune system and effect a protected state should you come into future contact with the disease.
ReplyDeleteThis method is quite effective ... my dogs are immunized for kennel cough (a highly contagious dog disease) by this method.
Thats not how vaccines work. Funny a person that calls another persona Moron when in fact he is the said name.
ReplyDeleteVaccine injections are no viable virus, they are dead. Live virus vaccine can only spread the virus not contain it. Use your noodle, not hard to grasp.
Vaccines contain DEAD or inactive virus it can't replicate and spread. Spay mist uses a LIVE virus which can be spread. Get it?
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, all of the "morons" here are right (and wrong). Some vaccines use live viruses, and some don't.
ReplyDeletehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attenuated_virus
This article is basically fearmongering though. There's nothing more dangerous about this live virus vaccine than the (generally regarded as safe) chickenpox vaccine.
FLumist is an "attenuated" live virus. YEs it can replicate but only in the cooler areas of the nasal membrane. In the main body core and organs where the temp is 98.6 degrees this virus cannot reproduce and cannot cause full blown H1N1 flu.
ReplyDeleteFor children, two doses are required at least 4 weeks apart. The first "primes" the immune system to recognize the virus, the second dose generated the immune response to provide protection. Adults can get protection in one dose.
So yes you get a live virus, and yes you can pass that around from smeezing, etc...but it cannot give you swine flu becasue the virus has been modified.
I believe that your article trying to ensure widespread panic would be far more detrimental than FluMist could ever be!
ReplyDeleteOh yes lets spray live virus in all our noses! While were at it lets go skinny dipping in mutant shark infested nuclear waste runoff!(I hear it prevents cancer)
ReplyDeleteOf course there is absolutley no chance that a virus can adapt and evolve, no no that never happens in nature and of course we fully understand how a virus works and know everything about them because of our great science!
So yes. line me and my children up to get an virtually untested vaccine(with a free bonus of live virus) which has been rushed and is full of wonderful adjuvants like shark fat and formaldehyde so that I may one day be safe from getting a mild 3 day fever!
how many people have gone retarded and/or had something else serious happen to them health related? thats not hard to look up at all...
