Fauci is apparently "urging Americans to get the flu shot to decrease their risk of Alzheimer's disease". Unfortunately, science is not in support of flu shots lowering any risk of Alzheimer's. In fact, quite the opposite effect has been documented!
Flu Shot and Alzheimer's Per Dr. Fudenberg
"According to Hugh Fudenberg, MD, the world’s leading immunogeneticist and 13th most quoted biologist of our times (nearly 850 papers in peer review journals): If an individual has had 5 consecutive flu shots between 1970 and 1980 (the years studied) his/her chances of getting Alzheimer’s Disease is 10 times higher than if he/she had one, 2 or no shots. Dr. Fudenberg said it was so and that it was due to mercury and aluminum that is in every flu shot. The gradual mercury and aluminum buildup in the brain causes cognitive dysfunction.
Flu shots contain 25 micrograms of mercury. One microgram is considered toxic." (Source)
Dr. Russell Blaylock also states that the flu shot contributes to Alzheimer's
“The vaccine is completely worthless, and the government knows it,” says Dr. Blaylock. “There are three reasons the government tells the elderly why they should get flu shots: secondary pneumonia, hospitalization, and death. Yet a study by the Cochrane group studied hundreds of thousands of people and found it offered zero protection for those three things in the general community. It offered people in nursing homes some immunity against the flu — at best one-third — but that was only if they picked the right vaccine.” (Source)
Another Flu Shot-Alzheimer's Connection
Evidence Implicating Amalgam in Alzheimer's Disease-
Studies have shown that the brains of the deceased Alzheimer patient have 4-times as much mercury and 2-times as much aluminum as is found in patients without Alzheimer. Also, tumors contain more mercury than is found in their environment.
More Flu Shot Information
People who get flu vaccines two years in a row show reduced vaccine efficacy, and people who receive them three years in a row show INCREASED risk of influenza infection.
Children who receive flu vaccines are 3x more likely to be hospitalized for influenza, especially if they have asthma.
Children who receive flu vaccines are 4x more likely to develop a respiratory infection.
Pregnant? The flu virus does not affect the baby, and there are more out-patient visits for flu among the general population than for pregnant women.
Pregnant? The level of mercury in your blood drops 75% within an hour of injection, but the level of mercury in the baby’s brain, kidneys, and liver is significantly raised up to 6 hours after injection.
And ethylmercury accumulates in the brain when unborn infants are exposed to it.
When pregnant women received two flu shots in 2009-2010, miscarriage rates increased 40-fold.
The CDC says there are 36,000 flu deaths each year, but they combine flu deaths with pneumonia deaths. The statistic for flu is only about 1,300 according to the National Center for Health Statistics.
The flu vaccine has a ridiculously low efficacy rate, often hovering around 10%. https://www.jpands.org/vol11no2/ayoub.pdf (table 2)
The flu vaccine has little evidence for efficacy in children under age two and little safety evidence.
The nasal mist, unlike the injection, is live-virus, meaning it can cause influenza infection in the recipient, and the recipient is contagious for about 3 weeks.
“The Vaccine Book” by Dr. Sears, pg 128
The flu shot contains formaldehyde, which is a carcinogen, but the flu vaccine has not been studied for carcinogenicity.
Flu shots contain Polysorbate 80, which aids medications to cross the blood-brain barrier. There are no safety studies that ensure the toxic ingredients in flu vaccines do not cross the blood-brain barrier.
Flu shots contain thimerosal, which contains mercury. In 2001, the Institute of Medicine said a causal relationship between thimerosal and neurological disorders could not be proven nor disproven, and that all vaccines manufactured after 2001 should be thimerosal-free. However, “preservative-free” means traces of mercury can be added during the manufacturing process.
Thimerosal contains ethylmercury, which has a higher concentration in the brain and a longer halflife than methylmercy.
Some flu shots contain 25mcg thimerosal (12.5mcg mercury). Some contain 25mcg thimerosal (25mcg mercury). All flu shots for children younger than 3 contain 25-50mcg thimerosal. (See package inserts of flu vaccines.) These children receive twice the amount of thimerosal deemed safe by the EPA each time they receive a flu vaccine.
Safety studies are poor quality and often biased, according to the British Medical Journal.
Safety studies often exclude serious adverse reactions, including deaths.
The flu vaccine is the vaccine with the most adverse reaction reports to VAERS and VICP, with Guillaine Barre being the most common serious reaction.
