Please Network This Flyer *************************************** Flu Vaccine Useless - Virus Mutates National Vaccine Information Center NVIC E-news FLU SHOT MANDATE LOOMS; FLU SHOT FAILS TO PROTECT By Barbara Loe Fisher In 2006, Mayo Clinic's Greg Poland, M.D., who has been a CDC vaccine policymaker and promotes worldwide use of multiple vaccines throughout life, called for mandatory vaccination of all health care workers with flu vaccine. See Expert calls for health workers to get flu shots This year, the CDC issued a formal recommendation for all health care workers to do just that. See CDC urges flu shots for all healthcare workers Dr. Poland has also been instrumental in defending the "safety" of the highly reactive anthrax vaccine the U.S. Department of Defense has required all soldiers to get. See here Last week, he called for all 300 million Americans to get a flu shot every year. See Universal Flu Vaccine Recommendation May Be Coming Dr. Poland, like so many doctors in public health and pediatrics today, considers himself a "warrior" in the crusade to kill all infectious microbes that cause human disease. He says, "Vaccines are the singularly most important medical technology ever devised. We administer a series of vaccines over a lifetime to every single human being on earth." See Poland Lab (Vaccine research) When ideology blinds a doctor, scientific truth is often the first casualty. A report out of Canada last week reveals that two of the three strains (Soloman Islands A, Wisconsin A, Malaysia B) selected by doctors at the World Health Organization and the CDC for North America "appear to be drifting and mutating, raising questions about how much protection this year's flu vaccine will offer." See This year's flu shot missing new strains of virus The Public Health Agency of Canada reports that the Wisconsin strain has already mutated into a different form than is contained in the vaccine and the Malaysia strain is also showing signs of mutating. This is similar to what happened in the 2003-2004 flu season when there was a mismatch of circulating flu strains with the ones selected for the flu vaccine. See FLU VACCINE: Missing the Mark So just how effective will the flu shot be at preventing death and illness from the flu this year, especially for children, the chronically ill and the elderly? Probably not any more effective than it has ever been, which is not very effective according to yet another study in the medical literature (Lancet Infect Dis. 2007;7:658-666). The Lancet reported this month that the elderly over age 70, who have always been targeted for flu vaccination because they account for 90 percent of all flu related deaths, may not be protected at all from dying from complications of the flu. Flu vaccine use by the elderly and those with chronic diseases has increased from 15% to 65% in the US and other high-income countries since 1980 but there has been no decrease in influenza-related mortality among these groups. The few clinical trials that have included elderly people have indicated there is a decrease in antibody responses and clinical benefits of flu vaccination as people age beyond 70 years. See here. This new report reinforces an analysis of flu vaccine clinical trials published last year in the British Medical Journal by Cochrane Collaboration researchers. See Influenza vaccination: policy versus evidence The 2006 Cochrane Collaboration analysis found that the majority of published influenza vaccine studies were methodologically flawed with selection biases, cofounders and heavy reliance on non-randomized studies. Authors pointed out that potential confusion between respiratory infections caused by flu viruses and those caused by non-flu viruses can result in a misdiagnosis and gross overestimation of the true impact of influenza on death and illness in a given flu season (CDC officials have never produced documented evidence for the 36,000 deaths they attribute to the flu every year). The 2006 study concluded that too few clinical trials have been conducted to prove flu vaccine safety and current evidence indicates that use of inactivated influenza vaccine has only a modest or no effect on preventing flu in children or the elderly. Co-author Tom Jefferson, an Italian epidemiologist said "There is a big gap between policies promoting annual influenza vaccinations for most children and adults and supporting scientific evidence." NVIC has taken the position that the CDC should stop recommending annual influenza vaccination for all young children when there is insufficient scientific justification for it. See National Vaccine Information Center Calls for Influenza Vaccine Policy Change Unfortunately, when the CDC makes a recommendation for universal use of vaccines, state mandates soon follow. Greg Poland's call for 300 million Americans to get an annual flu shot is a pretty good indicator the CDC will eventually follow suit and drug company lobbyists seeking higher profits will pressure state legislatures to institute flu vaccine mandates. Once every American has been softened up to accept an annual flu shot, more shots and mandates will follow. Only this time, the vaccine mandates will not just mean being barred from getting an education. Today, parental refusal to get a child vaccinated with all state mandated vaccines means the child can be barred from going to school or getting health insurance. Tomorrow vaccine mandates may mean being barred from getting a job or a driver's license unless you show proof you've saluted smartly and rolled up your sleeve for scores of new vaccines now being developed in more than 200 clinical trials worldwide. And that is a future that drug companies selling vaccines are convincing stockholders they can take all the way to the bank. ************************* Universal Flu Vaccine Recommendation May Be Coming Top Vaccine Expert Suggests Guideline for Vaccination for Every Man, Woman and Child ABC News October 26, 2007 This year's flu shot missing new strains of virus CTV.ca Annual Flu Shots May Be of Little Benefit to the Elderly Medscape Today September 26, 2007 by Laurie Barclay, MD October 24, 2007 ________________________________________ National Vaccine Information Center ________________________________________ email: news@nvic.org voice: 703-938-dpt3 web: http://www.nvic.org NVIC E-News is a free service of the National Vaccine Information Center and is supported through membership donations.
