Das Kernkraftwerk Brennilis (oder EL – 4 (Monts d'Arrée), nach der Region benannt) liegt in der Region Bretagne im Département Finistère. Der mit schwerem Wasser moderierte und gasgekühlte Reaktor war von 1967 bis 1985 in Betrieb. Der Baubeginn des Kraftwerks mit einer Leistung von 70 MW war 1962. Die Betriebsdauer der Anlage im Wirkbetrieb belief sich auf 96.000 h. Es wurde elektrische Energie von 6,32 TWh ins Netz eingespeist. Die mittlere Verfügbarkeit über den Betriebszeitraum betrug ca. 71 %. Seit 1997 befindet sich die Anlage im Rückbau. Ein voraussichtlicher Abschluss wird für 2025 erwartet.

Geschichte
Das Kernkraftwerk wurde vom französischen Energieversorger Électricité de France (EDF) gebaut und betrieben. Der für das Kühlwasser sorgende Fluss Ellez wurde extra für das Kraftwerk aufgestaut. Es entstand das "Réservoir de Saint-Michel" (auch "Lac de Saint-Michel"). Der Baubeginn für den Reaktorblock war am 1. Juli 1962, er ging am 9. Juli 1967 in Betrieb. Am 31. Juli 1985 wurde er stillgelegt.

Kraftwerkstyp
Das Kernkraftwerk war ein mit Schwerwasser moderierter und mit CO2 gekühlter Natururan-Versuchsreaktor (englisch: Heavy Water moderated Gas Cooled Reactor; HWGCR). Die Nettoleistung lag bei 70 Megawatt (MW) und die Bruttoleistung bei 75 MW. Die thermische Leistung betrug 250 MW.
Als Brennstoff dienten UO2-Pellets. Diese waren in Rohren aus CuZr mit 0,7 mm Wandstärke in Bündeln zu je 19 Rohren zusammengefasst. Insgesamt gab es 1944 dieser Brennstoffbündel. Zur Steuerung hatte der Reaktor Steuerstäbe aus Borcarbid (B4C), zwölf für die Grobsteuerung, vier für die Feinsteuerung und neun Sicherheitsstäbe.

Zwischenfälle
Im Betrieb gab es alljährlich zwei bis fünf gemeldete Zwischenfälle, angeblich nur Stufe 0 bis 1 und immer ohne nukleares Risiko. Messungen des Labors CRIIRAD auf Anforderung von Atomkraftgegnern bringen im Jahr 2006, also während der laufenden Abbrucharbeiten, überhöhte Radioaktivität im Umfeld des ehemaligen Reaktors zu Tage. Auf Grund der Zusammensetzung und Fundstellen der Isotopen lässt das nur den Schluss zu, dass es während des Betriebes mindestens einen radioaktiven Störfall gegeben haben muss. Die ebenfalls gefundenen Isotope mit kurzer Halbwertszeit müssen aus den Abbrucharbeiten stammen. Also ist auch hier Nachbesserung zum Schutz der Umwelt gefordert.
1975 gab es einen Angriff mit zwei Bomben durch Mitglieder der Bretonischen Befreiungsfront, die damit versuchten den französischen Staat zu erpressen. Das Ergebnis des Angriffs war lediglich eine Betriebsunterbrechung aus Sicherheitsgründen.

Ende der Nutzung
Nach der endgültigen Abschaltung Ende Juli 1985 wurde der Rückbau geplant. Wie bei den meisten Reaktoren der ersten Generation, wurde bei der Errichtung kein besonderes Augenmerk auf möglichst einfachen Rückbau gelegt. So ist es in Brennilis problematisch, den Reaktordruckbehälter zu öffnen um den Kern zu entsorgen, weil auf Grund der Bauweise rundherum ein komplexes System von Rohrleitungen den einfachen Zugriff unmöglich macht. Sieben Jahre nach Abschaltung des Reaktors wurden im Jahr 1992 die Brennelemente und das Schwerwasser aus der Anlage entfernt. Der Reaktor ist 20 Jahre nach Ablassen des Schwerwassers zwar vollständig trocken aber die hohe Dosisrate von 70 Sv/h (7 × 106 mrem/h) innerhalb des Druckbehälters lässt eine manuelle Arbeit nicht zu. Alle Arbeiten müssen mit ferngesteuerten Industrierobotern ausgeführt werden, die es in der Vielzahl noch zu entwickeln und zu erproben galt.

Rückbau
Die ersten Abbrucharbeiten begannen Mitte der 1997er und endeten vorerst im Jahr 2007. Sie umfassten den Abbruch der nicht nuklearen Gebäude, Entfernung von elektrischen Anlagen, Entsorgung von Teilen der CO2-Kühlanlage und der Schwerwasseranlagen.

Hindernisse
Im Jahr 2007 gab es eine Unterbrechung der Arbeiten durch eine Entscheidung des französischen Staatsrats (Conseil d'État), indem die Abbruchslizenz widerrufen wurde. Der Widerruf hatte seine Ursache in dem Umstand, dass ein Gutachten in Absprache mit dem Eigentümer und Betreiber des Reaktors, EDF, erst nach der Erteilung der Lizenz öffentlich gemacht wurde. Ein neues Gutachten von 2007, veranlasst durch Atomkraftgegner, lässt außerdem den Verdacht aufkommen, dass bei den Abbrucharbeiten Radioaktivität in die Umgebung entweichen konnte.

Wiederaufnahme der Arbeiten
Eine Neuerteilung einer Lizenz wurde erst 2011 unter verschärften Auflagen vorgenommen. Bis zu diesem Zeitraum ruhten alle Abbrucharbeiten am Reaktor. Trotz dieser Verzögerung und noch fehlender Genehmigung der ASN (Autorité de sûreté nucléaire) für den Totalabbau gehen die Verantwortlichen bei EDF im Jahr 2013 von einem vollständigen Rückbau bis 2025 aus. Selbst die Tatsache, dass mit dem Reaktordruckbehälter noch 96 % der radioaktiv verseuchten Teile abgebaut werden müssen, stört bei diesem ehrgeizigen Zeitplan ebenso wenig wie die Tatsache, dass von staatlicher Seite nur eine Teilgenehmigung für den Rückbau vorliegt. Seit dem Jahr 2012 mehren sich die Forderungen, die Demontage des Atommeilers zu beenden, weil eine radioaktive Verseuchung der Umgebung befürchtet wird. Schließlich liegt der Atommeiler mitten in einem Naturschutz- und Erholungsgebiet und die Genehmigung für den vollständigen Abbruch fehlt noch immer.

Neue Vorgaben
Die zuständige ASN verwehrte noch Ende 2017 die Zusage aus mehreren Gründen: Es gibt kein Endlager für die anfallenden Mengen an radioaktivem Material und es wurde festgestellt, dass Abfallmengen durch fehlende Kompetenz falsch deklariert und falsch verpackt wurden. Bei erneuten Inspektionen der Anlage im November 2017 und März 2018 durch Inspekteure der ASN konnten laut Betreiber keine Unzulänglichkeiten mehr festgestellt werden.

Ende in Sicht
Ende Juli 2018 hat die EDF ein detailliertes Papier über das Vorgehen beim vollständigen Abbruch der Anlage vorgelegt. Darin wird auf die Forderungen der ASN eingegangen, speziell was den Abbruch des eigentlichen Reaktorgebäudes angeht, zumal zu dieser Zeit das Gelände um den ehemaligen Meiler bereits anderweitig genutzt werden soll.
Im Januar 2020 ist festgestellt, dass der vollständige Rückbau durchgeführt wird und voraussichtlich bis zum Jahr 2038 dauern wird. Der Grund dafür ist darin zu sehen, dass nun konform mit bestehenden Vorschriften schrittweises Vorgehen mit Überprüfung jeden Schrittes vorgesehen ist. So soll das "Unvorhergesehene" in jedem Fall vermieden werden.

Kosten des Rückbaus
Für die Kosten der kompletten Demontage des Kraftwerkes waren 2008 482 Millionen Euro verbraucht. Damit waren die Kosten bereits fünfmal so hoch wie die erste Prognose. Aktuell (Ende 2018) geht man von Gesamtkosten in Höhe von rund 700 Millionen Euro aus.

Interest in smartbots and intelligent virtual assistants employing artificial intelligence (AI), natural language processing (NLP), speech recognition, and other cognitive techniques for automating and enhancing customer interaction and experience is increasing.
The ability of AI and cognitive systems to understand natural language (NL) makes it possible to add smart, conversational interfaces to mobile apps and popular messaging platforms (Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Slack, WeChat, Viber, SMS, etc.) that are more natural to use and can facilitate a more direct, satisfying, and engaging dialogue between the customer and company.
Although they are generating considerable interest across various industries, banking and other financial institutions, in particular, are keen to implement smartbots and intelligent virtual assistants to provide their customers with a higher level of customer experience.
And we are seeing a lot of startups and financial companies seeking to develop new conversational platforms for mobile banking apps and popular messaging systems that will make it easier and more satisfying for customers to conduct banking transactions and receive help and advice pertaining to support and other inquiries.
Recently I spoke with the folks at Kasisto, a FinTech startup that just introduced a new conversational AI platform for banking. KAI Banking is designed for banks and other financial institutions to incorporate intelligent, branded virtual assistants and conversational bots into mobile banking apps and popular messaging platforms to allow customers to conduct common banking interactions through speech and NL text-powered interfaces.
Kasisto, which spun out of SRI International in 2014, has leveraged SRI's decades of R&D in AI, speech, and NL. Its KAI Banking platform employs various AI and cognitive techniques, including natural language understanding (NLU), speech recognition, neural nets, machine learning (ML), statistical analysis, and rule-based reasoning.
It also incorporates a knowledgebase of deep financial knowledge, allowing banks to engage with customers, simplify how customers perform complex tasks, and introduce new services via (branded) mobile conversational experiences.
Kasisto offers three products built on its conversational AI platform, including: KAI Banking on Mobile, KAI Banking on Messaging, and MyKAI.
KAI Banking on Mobile is an enterprise offering for banks to implement smart, bank-branded mobile banking apps featuring conversational UIs designed to simplify consumer banking transactions and other activities.
Because the KAI platform embeds deep financial knowledge of banking — including dozens of banking intents and millions of banking sentences — virtual assistants and bots can anticipate and answer thousands of customer questions. Customers also can converse with the app to receive answers to questions or perform banking transactions.
Customers can get details of specific past transactions simply by speaking or typing; for instance, to inquire about travel expenses for a particular period, as shown in Figure 1. Similarly, customers can conduct new transactions; for example, by asking to make a payment to their credit card. The KAI platform also tracks expenses by merchants, so you can ask and get answers to questions like "How much did I spend on Lyft last month?" Because the virtual assistant understands natural language input and learns via ML algorithms that analyze customer interactions, it responds in real time.
Figure 1 — KAI Banking on Mobile.
Currently KAI-powered virtual assistants (and bots) can anticipate and answer approximately 1,100 questions uniquely related to banking. However, new knowledge is added with each new customer interaction analyzed by ML.
Such functionality allows customers to use their mobile devices to complete their banking transactions or have their questions answered without having to speak to a call center agent. But, should a virtual assistant (or bot) be unable to handle a transaction or answer a query, it will automatically hand the customer off to a live call center agent.
DBS Bank, Singapore, is using KAI Banking to implement the intelligent assistants in digibank — DBS's new mobile-only bank recently launched in India (for more on DBS's use of Kasisto, click here).
KAI Banking on Messaging is for banks to develop branded smartbots so customers can bank conversationally from within their preferred messaging systems like Facebook Messenger, Slack, and SMS. KAI Banking on Messaging essentially extends Kasisto's conversational AI engine for powering virtual assistants in mobile apps (i.e., KAI Banking on Mobile) to support conversational bots running in messaging platforms.
Similar to intelligent virtual assistants for banking apps, smartbots can answer banking queries, conduct transactions, predict customer needs, and guide users through the banking experience in a conversational manner from within the messaging app.
Royal Bank of Canada is implementing a pilot project using KAI Banking on Messaging. It will be the first North American bank to offer smart banking bots built on Kasisto technology. DBS Bank also plans to offer banking services powered by KAI Banking on Messaging.
MyKAI is a personal intelligent finance and banking bot for consumers who want to perform smart banking activities independent of their bank. MyKAI offers a more limited subset of the capabilities provided by KAI Banking on Mobile and KAI Banking on Messaging.
MyKAI allows consumers to consolidate and access their various banking and credit card accounts. Users can manage their money, track expenses, analyze spending, and get banking questions answered. They can also make payments to friends via Venmo — the free digital wallet that lets users make and share payments with friends — from inside Facebook Messenger, Slack, and SMS, as shown in Figure 2. But, unlike smartbots and virtual assistant implemented in KAI Banking on Mobile and KAI Banking on Messaging, MyKAI does not let users make payments or transfer money from their bank accounts.
Figure 2 — MyKAI lets users pay other people.
KAI Banking platform is cloud-based and features APIs and SDKs, meaning that banks can build and deploy intelligent assistants and bots without having to implement completely new architectures or become experts in NLP, neural nets, ML, and other AI technologies. Self-service tools let banks customize (company logo, brand, etc.) their bots and virtual assistants and measure performance.
Any time new technology for banking and finance enters the market, issues of privacy and security quickly arise. Kasisto reps claim its platform is as secure and private as a bank's mobile app, and that no personal or financial data is ever stored, with KAI using read-only data about accounts from a secure independent aggregator. A good point to keep in mind is that Kasisto is a spin-off of SRI, which has considerable experience in designing technology with enterprise-grade and banking-compliant security and privacy practices.
Interest in intelligent virtual assistants and smartbots is expected to accelerate rapidly — and not only from banks but from businesses in general.
Chatbots and agents running in the popular messaging apps will be particularly sought after by companies seeking to take advantage of the immense consumer user bases such messaging systems have. Depending on who is counting, this amounts to almost three billion active monthly users, with about 75% on four main messaging apps that include Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, WeChat, and Viber. Already, David Marcus, Facebook VP of Messaging Products, claims that more than 11,000 chatbots have been added to Facebook Messenger since the company's chatbot program launched in May.
Companies like Kasisto that offer platforms for implementing innovative agents and smartbots that allow companies to interface directly with their customers in an engaging, conversational manner via mobile apps and messaging may lead to significant disruption in the way sales, customer service, and customer experience management are done.
Finally, I'd like to get your opinion about Kasisto KAI and the use of smartbots and intelligent agents for mobile and messaging. You can comment below, email me at chall@cutter.com, or call +1 510 356 7299 with your comments.

"Ignorance is a temporary affliction, remedied only by asking [the right people] the right questions." ~Colin Wright
Are Vaccines Safe?
ARE VACCINES SAFE? Nothing is either SAFE or UNSAFE without exception. The question is what is the risk of getting the illness vs. the risk of a negative response to the shot? This data is difficult to collect but we know: Vaccine ingredients are classified toxins, over 3.3 billion dollars has been paid to those hurt and killed, and our judicial system has declared vaccines "Unavoidably Unsafe."
Are Vaccines Effective?
When considering the efficacy of vaccines, it is important to know that vaccines have been heralded as saviors and credited with the decline in disease infection and disease transmission. The truth is, diseases for which there are vaccines available had been on the decline well before vaccines were introduced and vaccines do not provide lasting immunity to disease or prevent infection. In fact, vaccines are capable of transmitting disease through viral shedding, and many outbreaks occur in vaccinated populations.
Are Vaccines Necessary?
It's a great misconception that our bodies are unable to protect themselves from disease. On the contrary, when given the proper nutrition, supplements, rest, exercise, sunshine, and avoidance of toxic chemicals, our bodies possess a God-given, innate ability to heal, protect, and maintain optimal health, even when a threat of infection is present.

Millions of Italians are rising up against a government determined to take away the rights of the individual by passing a brutal mandatory vaccination law. The streets of major cities throughout the country are heaving as mainstream media continues to suppress the scale of events.
For over a month Italians have been protesting in every major city against the proposed law is set to make 53 doses of vaccines mandatory for all children. Unvaccinated children will be not be allowed to attend school and may be removed from their parents.
"In 2014 in Washington, during the visit of Lorenzin (Italian Health Minister), Italy was chosen to be the world leader of vaccine strategy," a speaker at the Rome protest explained. "The problem is not the vaccines per se, the problem is that Glaxo is inside our Ministry!"
Italy is at the forefront of a vaccination experiment conducted by an Italian government corrupted by Big Pharma dollars. By allowing pharmaceutical companies to create new laws and force the full range of their products on the whole population against their consent, the Italian government has betrayed their people.

What The Media Isn't Telling You About Whooping Cough
The vaccine doesn't work
It's simple, if the vaccine worked it wouldn't be allowing those who've had it to contract and even spread pertussis.
The whooping cough vaccine currently in use doesn't work, since 80% of cases being seen in Australia are a mutated strain not covered by the vaccine. In fact, several recent studies have found that those who had had the vaccine were more likely to develop Para Pertussis.
What is most alarming though, especially for those thinking about getting the vaccine to visit a newborn, is the fact that recently vaccinated individuals can be asymptomatic carriers, ie. they can carry the pertussis toxin in their throats and spread it without showing any symptoms. In fact, it's been suggested that asymptomatic transmission could explain the recent surge in whooping cough rates being seen in many countries such as the USA and Australia.
So without having any symptoms a vaccinated individual can potentially visit a newborn baby and infect them without even knowing it. This is frightening considering that the recent trend being pushed by doctors is the practice of "cocooning" where nobody is allowed to visit a newborn without having their booster shot.
Whooping Cough Rates Are Increasing in Highly Vaccinated Populations
Whooping cough rates were steadily declining in Australia for over 100 years until measures began in 1991 and 1997 to increase vaccination coverage in infants and children. In 1991 less than 71% of Australian children were fully vaccinated yet there were only 347 cases, while in 2011 with over 90% fully vaccinated there were over 38000 cases reported. Something is clearly wrong and it's not the unvaccinated children causing this "epidemic" since the highest number of cases are occurring in areas with high vaccination rates. A 2012 study by Dr Witt, Professor of Infectious Diseases found the highest incidence of the disease was in previously vaccinated individuals. Another study found that 85% of cases of whooping cough in schools occurred in vaccinated children.
Evolution of whooping cough bacterium could reduce vaccine effectiveness
The bacterium that causes whooping cough has evolved – most likely in response to the vaccine used to prevent the disease – with a possible reduced effectiveness of the vaccine as a result, a new study shows.
The bacterium that causes whooping cough, Bordetella pertussis, has changed – most likely in response to the vaccine used to prevent the disease – with a possible reduced effectiveness of the vaccine as a result, a new study shows.
A UNSW-led team of researchers analysed strains of Bordetella pertussis from across Australia and found that many strains no longer produce a key surface protein called pertactin.
About 80 per cent of the 2012 whooping cough cases in Australia studied by the team were caused by pertactin-free strains.
Pertactin is one of the three proteins, made from purified extracts of Bordetella pertussis bacteria,which are present in the vaccine currently used in Australia. The other two are pertussis toxin and filamentous haemagglutinin.
"It's like a game of hide and seek. It is harder for the antibodies made by the body's immune system in response to vaccination to 'search and destroy' the whooping cough bacteria which lack pertactin," says the senior author of the study, Associate Professor Ruiting Lan, of the UNSW School of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences.
"This could mean that these pertactin-free strains have gained a selective advantage over bacterial strains with the pertactin protein."
Study – Acellular pertussis vaccination facilitates Bordetella parapertussis infection in a rodent model of bordetellosis.
Long GH, et al. Proc Biol Sci. 2010
Despite over 50 years of population-wide vaccination, whooping cough incidence is on the rise. Although Bordetella pertussis is considered the main causative agent of whooping cough in humans, Bordetella parapertussis infections are not uncommon. The widely used acellular whooping cough vaccines (aP) are comprised solely of B. pertussis antigens that hold little or no efficacy against B. parapertussis. Here, we ask how aP vaccination affects competitive interactions between Bordetella species within co-infected rodent hosts and thus the aP-driven strength and direction of in-host selection. We show that aP vaccination helped clear B. pertussis but resulted in an approximately 40-fold increase in B. parapertussis lung colony-forming units (CFUs). Such vaccine-mediated facilitation of B. parapertussis did not arise as a result of competitive release; B. parapertussis CFUs were higher in aP-relative to sham-vaccinated hosts regardless of whether infections were single or mixed. Further, we show that aP vaccination impedes host immunity against B. parapertussis-measured as reduced lung inflammatory and neutrophil responses. Thus, we conclude that aP vaccination interferes with the optimal clearance of B. parapertussis and enhances the performance of this pathogen. Our data raise the possibility that widespread aP vaccination can create hosts more susceptible to B. parapertussis infection.
Whooping Cough Study May Offer Clue on Surge
By SABRINA TAVERNISENOV. 25, 2013
Baboons vaccinated against whooping cough could still carry the illness in their throats and spread it, research published in a science journal on Monday has found. The surprising new finding has not been replicated in people, but scientists say it may provide an important clue to a puzzling spike in the incidence of whooping cough across the country, which reached a 50-year high last year.
The whooping cough vaccines now in use were introduced in the 1990s after an older version, which offered longer-lasting protection, was found to have side effects. But over the years, scientists have determined that the new vaccines began to lose effectiveness after about five years, a significant problem that many researchers believe has contributed to the significant rise in whooping cough cases.
The new study, published on Monday in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, offers another explanation. Using baboons, the researchers found that recently vaccinated animals continued to carry the infection in their throats. Even though those baboons did not get sick from it, they spread the infection to others that were not vaccinated.
"When you're newly vaccinated you are an asymptomatic carrier, which is good for you, but not for the population," said Tod J. Merkel, the lead author of the study, who is a researcher in the Office of Vaccines Research and Review in the Food and Drug Administration
Study – 86% of Fully Immunised Group of Children Get Whooping Cough
Results 64 (37.2%, 95% confidence interval 30.0% to 44.4%) children had serological evidence of a recent Bordetella pertussis infection; 55 (85.9%) of these children had been fully immunised. At presentation, children with whooping cough were more likely than others to have whooping (odds ratio 2.85, 95% confidence interval 1.39 to 5.82), vomiting (4.35, 2.04 to 9.25), and sputum production (2.39, 1.14 to 5.02). Children with whooping cough were also more likely to still be coughing two months after the start of their illness (85% v 48%; P = 0.001), continue to have more than five coughing episodes a day (P = 0.049), and cause sleep disturbance for their parents (P = 0.003).
Conclusions For school age children presenting to primary care with a cough lasting two weeks or more, a diagnosis of whooping cough should be considered even if the child has been immunised. Making a secure diagnosis of whooping cough may prevent inappropriate investigations and treatment
Not Just Autism, Major Yale Study Shows Vaccines Tied to Multiple Brain Disorders
It is no question that the subject of vaccines is profoundly controversial. On both sides of the argument exist truths and lies that can hinder the ability of some to make rational decisions.
For the last 50 years, the world has taken a front row seat to the phenomenological occurrences of the rise of brain disorders such as Autism, ADHD, and major depressive disorders. Anecdotally speaking, parents all over the globe have reported that one day their children were normal and growing healthily, and the next, after having gotten their vaccinations, they get Autism, or ADHD, for example.
While science and the government continue to maintain there's no causal relation between the vaccines and the disorders, parents, multiple studies, and other countries have reported otherwise. Now, it seems, some very brave and unabashed scientists have been able to show a correlation of what many have known for quite some time.
It has also been proven that CDC scientists destroyed data that showed a correlation between vaccines and autism in children.
Researchers at Pennsylvania State and Yale University sought to examine, "whether antecedent vaccinations are associated with increased incidence of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), anorexia nervosa (AN), anxiety disorder, chronic tic disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, major depressive disorder, and bipolar disorder in a national sample of privately insured children."
Temporal Association of Certain Neuropsychiatric Disorders Following Vaccination of Children and Adolescents: A Pilot Case–Control Study
Front. Psychiatry, 19 January 2017 | https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyt.2017.00003
Results: Subjects with newly diagnosed AN were more likely than controls to have had any vaccination in the previous 3 months [hazard ratio (HR) 1.80, 95% confidence interval 1.21–2.68]. Influenza vaccinations during the prior 3, 6, and 12 months were also associated with incident diagnoses of AN, OCD, and an anxiety disorder. Several other associations were also significant with HRs greater than 1.40 (hepatitis A with OCD and AN; hepatitis B with AN; and meningitis with AN and chronic tic disorder).
Conclusion: This pilot epidemiologic analysis implies that the onset of some neuropsychiatric disorders may be temporally related to prior vaccinations in a subset of individuals. These findings warrant further investigation, but do not prove a causal role of antecedent infections or vaccinations in the pathoetiology of these conditions. Given the modest magnitude of these findings in contrast to the clear public health benefits of the timely administration of vaccines in preventing mortality and morbidity in childhood infectious diseases, we encourage families to maintain vaccination schedules according to CDC guidelines.
Studies Prove Without Doubt That Unvaccinated Children Are Far Healthier Than Their Vaccinated Peers
July 6, 2017 Purvi Jain
A study from the 1990s has come to light, proving that compared to unvaccinated children, vaccinated children were more likely to suffer from asthma, eczema, ear infections, hyperactivity and many other chronic conditions.
Furthermore, the study identified that there was a ten-fold increase in the incidence of tonsillitis in the children who were vaccinated, and a total lack tonsillectomy operations among the children who were unvaccinated.
In 1992, the Immunization Awareness Society (IAS) conducted a survey to examine the health of New Zealand's children. Unsurprisingly, the results of their study indicated that unvaccinated children were far healthier than vaccinated children.
Questionnaires were given out to IAS members, their friends and their associates asking various health questions.
A total of 245 families returned their questionnaires, giving the researchers a total of 495 children surveyed. Of these children, 226 were vaccinated and 269 were unvaccinated.
ASTOUNDING masses gathered in Rome, Italy to demand liberty and freedom and say NO to mandatory vaccinations!
CDC Knew Its Vaccine Program Was Exposing Children to Dangerous Mercury Levels Since 1999
Uncovered documents show that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) knew that infant vaccines were exposing American children to mercury far in excess of all federal safety guidelines since 1999. The documents, created by a FDA consulting toxicologist, show how federal regulators concealed the dangerous impacts and lied to the public.

Statement of William W. Thompson, Ph.D., Regarding the 2004 Article Examining the Possibility of a Relationship Between MMR Vaccine and Autism
My name is William Thompson. I am a Senior Scientist with the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, where I have worked since 1998.
I regret that my coauthors and I omitted statistically significant information in our 2004 article published in the journal Pediatrics. The omitted data suggested that African American males who received the MMR vaccine before age 36 months were at increased risk for autism. Decisions were made regarding which findings to report after the data were collected, and I believe that the final study protocol was not followed.
I want to be absolutely clear that I believe vaccines have saved and continue to save countless lives. I would never suggest that any parent avoid vaccinating children of any race. Vaccines prevent serious diseases, and the risks associated with their administration are vastly outweighed by their individual and societal benefits.
My concern has been the decision to omit relevant findings in a particular study for a particular sub group for a particular vaccine. There have always been recognized risks for vaccination and I believe it is the responsibility of the CDC to properly convey the risks associated with receipt of those vaccines.
I have had many discussions with Dr. Brian Hooker over the last 10 months regarding studies the CDC has carried out regarding vaccines and neurodevelopmental outcomes including autism spectrum disorders. I share his beliefthat CDC decision-making and analyses should be transparent. I was not, however, aware that he was recording any of our conversations, nor was I given any choice regarding whether my name would be made public or my voice would be put on the Internet.

Yale Study SHOWS Vaccines Cause Brain Disorders – RFK Jr.
By Paul Webber – February 11, 2017
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has wasted little time as the newly appointed Vaccine Safety Czar of the Trump Administration. Kennedy has long championed the rights of those suffering from vaccine injury and now thanks to President Trump bringing the cause to mainstream, Kennedy has a powerful stage to generate discussion.
Now on the heels of a research study from Yale University, Kennedy has released the story on EcoWatch, Kennedy is on the board of the website.
Study – Temporal Association of Certain Neuropsychiatric Disorders Following Vaccination of Children and Adolescents: A Pilot Case–Control Study
Background: Although the association of the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine with autism spectrum disorder has been convincingly disproven, the onset of certain brain-related autoimmune and inflammatory disorders has been found to be temporally associated with the antecedent administration of various vaccines. This study examines whether antecedent vaccinations are associated with increased incidence of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), anorexia nervosa (AN), anxiety disorder, chronic tic disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, major depressive disorder, and bipolar disorder in a national sample of privately insured children.
Methods: Using claims data, we compared the prior year's occurrence of vaccinations in children and adolescents aged 6–15 years with the above neuropsychiatric disorders that were newly diagnosed between January 2002 and December 2007, as well as two control conditions, broken bones and open wounds. Subjects were matched with controls according to age, gender, geographical area, and seasonality. Conditional logistic regression models were used to determine the association of prior vaccinations with each condition.
Flu Shot Causes Over 5x Times More Respiratory Infections – A Vaccinated vs. Unvaccinated Study
While the government in the U.S. continues to resist doing a true study on vaccinated vs. unvaccinated children or adults, stating that such a study would be "unethical", researchers in Hong Kong have conducted a true vaccinated vs. unvaccinated study on the influenza vaccine. This is probably one of the few, if not only, true study conducted in recent times where a real placebo was actually used and compared to the vaccine. The results are quite remarkable, suggesting that it is unethical NOT to pursue more studies comparing vaccinated and unvaccinated populations. People receiving the flu vaccine suffered from other respiratory infections at a rate 5.5 times more than the placebo group!
Thanks to Heidi Stevenson at Gaia Health for providing her excellent analysis of this study in response to my request.
Vaccine Vials, by Sanofi Pasteur, Vaccine Profiteer
The utter absurdity of vaccination 'science' is revealed in this study. It claims a flu vaccine results in less disease risk because it causes antibodies to develop, in spite of not reducing the likelihood of contracting the disease and also resulting in 5.5 times more incidents of similar diseases!
by Heidi Stevenson Gaia Health
Would you be interested in a vaccination that results in more than 5 times as much illness? If you take the seasonal influenza vaccination, that's what you're doing. The seasonal trivalent flu vaccine results in 5.5 times more incidents of respiratory illness, according to a study published in Clinical Infectious Diseases.
The study is particularly noteworthy because it was a double-blind placebo-controlled trial—and the researchers used saline solution, a genuinely inactive placebo, as a standin for the trivalent flu vaccine. Most vaccine trials utilize active placebos, which are substances that include ingredients used in the vaccines, making the studies meaningless—though this fact is almost never revealed in the writeups.
Subjects were followed for an average of 272 days. The active influenza vaccine adminstered was Sanofi Pasteur's Vaxigrip. The trial included children aged 6-15 years. 69 were given Vaxgrip and 46 received the saline placebo.
With regard to effectiveness against influenza, the authors wrote:
There was no statistically significant difference in the risk of confirmed seasonal influenza infection between recipients of TIV [trivalent influenza inactivated vaccine] or placebo.
The flu vaccine provided no benefit!
The authors tried to cover that by adding:
TIV recipients had significantly lower risk of seasonal influenza infection based on serologic evidence.
In other words, the authors are trying to suggest that, in spite of the fact that vaccine recipients suffered as much genuine influenza as those who'd received a placebo, they still benefited because of "serologic evidence". This "serologic evidence" consists of antibodies produced as a result of the vaccine, which is the standard method of determining a vaccine's effectiveness.
In other words, a vaccine's effectiveness is not determined by whether it prevents disease, but rather by whether it causes antibodies to be produced!

THE VACCINE PANEL: The Insider's Report
Human-Pig GMO Created at Vaccine Institute
In Greek mythology, a chimera is a fire-breathing monster created from different species, most often portrayed as a creature with a lion's head, a goat's body and a serpent's tail.
Chimeras have long been regarded as mythical creatures, to the extent that the word "chimera" also means "an illusion or fabrication of the mind" or "an unrealizable dream."1 Among humans, chimeras, or people who have two genetically distinct types of cells, do exist, however.
Most often this occurs among non-identical twins who shared a blood supply in the uterus and end up having more than one blood type (they're known as blood chimeras). The idea of a human-animal chimera has remained confined largely to mythology, however — until now.
First Human-Pig Hybrid Created
Researchers from the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, California, have made history by creating a human-pig hybrid, a task achieved by injecting days-old pig embryos with human pluripotent stem cells.2 Such cells, like embryonic stem cells, are able to divide indefinitely and become any type of cell in the body.
The human-pig embryos were then transferred into adult pigs and allowed to grow for up to four weeks, before they were "removed and analyzed."3
The study noted that more than 2,000 hybrid embryos were transferred into surrogate sows, but only 186 later-stage chimeric embryos survived the process, each with about 1 in 100,000 human cells.
The long-term goal of such research is to figure out if it's possible to grow human organs inside other species, like pigs. Human embryo development, drug development and disease processes could also be studied using chimeras.
Animal chimeras have been developed in the past. For instance, researchers genetically engineered (GE) rat embryos to not produce a pancreas (which controls blood sugar levels), then injected mouse stem cells into them, which resulted in the growth of pancreatic tissue.
They were then able to treat diabetes by transplanting parts of the healthy organs into diseased mice.4
The development of human-animal chimeras has, however, remained in the realm of science fiction until now. Aside from the glaring ethical considerations, these types of experiments have been ineligible for public funding in the U.S., which is why the Salk Institute has had to rely on private funding for the study.5
India Boots Gates Foundation Citing Pharmaceutical "Conflict of Interest"
In 2009, tribal children (girls) of the Khammam district in Andhra Pradesh, India were given "well being" shots consisting of the HPV vaccine manufactured by Merck. In Vadodara, Gujarat, another 14,000 plus more tribal children used as guinea pigs. This time the "well being" shots were the HPV vaccine called Cervarix made by GlaxoSmithKline. Both vaccine "campaigns" had purposely denied the girls and their parents informed consent. Both "campaigns" were really official expanded trials of Merck and GlaxoSmithKline's newly approved HPV vaccines. Both trials were in collaboration, directed, and implemented by the openly candid eugenics Gates Foundation. And both India HPV vaccine trials saw the health of a critical mass of the girls who received the unsafe vaccine rapidly deteriorate including some deaths.
In April 2010, the government of India called a halt to trials of the HPV vaccine. This came about because of a civil society-led investigation highlighted serious ethical violations in the trials. According to Economic and Political Weekly, the investigation that led to the ban highlights how:
"…the promotional practices of drug companies, pressure from powerful international organizations, and the co-option of, and uncritical endorsement by India's medical associations are influencing the country's public health priorities."
Whistleblowers from the Indian NGO woman's health group named Sama revealed how the young girls were being used as guinea pigs for vaccine trials all under the guise of receiving healthcare. Sama reported that those receiving the vaccine were given no informed consent while authorities made the people submit their thumb prints.
The recent news reported by the Economic Times of India states:
"The Centre has shut the gate on the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation on a critical national health mission, and possible conflict of interest issues arising from the foundation's "ties" with pharmaceutical companies is one of the reasons.
All financial ties of the country's apex immunization advisory body, National Technical Advisory Group on Immunization (NTAGI), with the Gates Foundation have been cut off."
Concerns from senior medical officials within India, arguments from members of the steering board of the National Health Mission, and the Swadeshi Jagaran Manch economic wing of the Hindu nationalist movement unified to blow the whistle on pharmaceutical "conflict of interest issues" within the NTAGI-Gates Foundation relationship. Gates and his foundation were given 20 days to wrap up their ties and exit their involvement with India's Immunization Technical Support Unit at the Public Health Foundation of India. The official removal of the Gates Foundation from the affairs of India's public health care comes after over a five year legal battle within India's Supreme Court in which the foundation has been on trial for damage their vaccine programs have caused.
Coming into existence on November 22, 1991 People from all walks of life with distinct ideologies in India came together on the Swadeshi Jagaran Manch (SJM) platform to fight against "economic imperialism." Playing a role in the recent removal the Gates Foundation from India, SJM's national co-convener Ashwani Mahajan told the Economic Times of India, "We welcome this move by the government. We have always said foreign influence in our domestic policies in any way must be avoided."
Ten Year Old Little Girl Paralyzed After Vaccination:
Nancy Grace had NO idea that Congress had removed the rights of Americans to sue for vaccine injury and death.
Due to this cruel, unjust reality, even though the legal system has ruled in favor of countless cases proving that the flu shot DOES cause ADEM (Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis), the vaccine injury that Marysue Grivna suffered, people like Amy Edwards can still go on TV and claim, "Gosh… we just don't know if and how flu shots cause ADEM…..We think it is just a coincidence."

Yale University Study Shows Association Between Vaccines and Brain Disorders
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
A team of researchers from the Yale School of Medicine and Penn State College of Medicine have found a disturbing association between the timing of vaccines and the onset of certain brain disorders in a subset of children.
Analyzing five years' worth of private health insurance data on children ages 6-15, these scientists found that young people vaccinated in the previous three to 12 months were significantly more likely to be diagnosed with certain neuropsychiatric disorders than their non-vaccinated counterparts.
This new study, which raises important questions about whether over-vaccination may be triggering immune and neurological damage in a subset of vulnerable children (something parents of children with autism have been saying for years), was published in the peer-reviewed journal Frontiers in Psychiatry, Jan. 19.
More than 95,000 children in the database that were analyzed had one of seven neuropsychiatric disorders: anorexia nervosa, anxiety disorder, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), bipolar disorder, major depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and tic disorder.
Children with these disorders were compared to children without neuropsychiatric disorders, as well as to children with two other conditions that could not possibly be related to vaccination: open wounds and broken bones.
This was a well-designed, tightly controlled study. Control subjects without brain disorders were matched with the subjects by age, geographic location and gender.
As expected, broken bones and open wounds showed no significant association with vaccinations.
New cases of major depression, bipolar disorder or ADHD also showed no significant association with vaccinations.
However, children who had been vaccinated were 80 percent more likely to be diagnosed with anorexia and 25 percent more likely to be diagnosed with OCD than their non-vaccinated counterparts. Vaccinated children were also more likely to be diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and with tics compared to the controls.
In a carefully worded conclusion, the researchers caution making too much of these results while also urging further investigation. "This pilot epidemiologic analysis implies that the onset of some neuropsychiatric disorders may be temporally related to prior vaccinations in a subset of individuals," they write. "These findings warrant further investigation, but do not prove a causal role of antecedent infections or vaccinations in the pathoetiology of these conditions."

Flu Shot Ingredients & Why You Should NEVER Get One
Flu shot hysteria is in full swing. In some ways, the most dangerous flu shot ingredients are the socio-political elements that make up the hysteria: drug company marketing, co-worker bullies, corporate mandates. I can't tell you how many stories I hear from readers who are bullied and subjected to discrimination at corporate offices. It is utterly appalling.
But there are actual ingredients which are, well, pretty bad. They are disgusting. Here are a few:
Formaldehyde: You know, the stuff your science class preserved frogs in. This stuff is also used to maintain (stabilize) your flu vaccine concoction. Formaldehyde is a colorless and flammable substance often used in household cleaning products. You can, as alluded to before, embalm a dead body using it. It has been linked to neurological damage and metabolic acidosis. It can make it difficult for you to breath and possible kidney failure. It has also been classified as a carcinogen for humans, which means it causes cancer.
Aluminum: This is used as an "adjuvant." The goal is to stimulate an immune response. Aluminum, however, is a neurotoxin. It has been linked to Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and dementia. Some studies on humans have even shown it to cause nerve death.
Phenol: This is supposed to help stimulate an immune response. It was used by Nazis to exterminate Jews during WW2. It is also used in weed killers to help kill weeds. Reproductive systems, liver, kidneys and even the skin suffer serious side effects with Phenol.
This is only a few of the real ingredients. Why on earth would anyone take this shot?
Just how well does the flu shot work?
This graph is taken from the CDC website. The shot in 2014-2015 flu season protected people at a 23% rate?
Seasonal Influenza Vaccine Effectiveness, 2005-2016
CDC conducts studies to measure the benefits of seasonal flu vaccination each flu season to help determine how well flu vaccines are working. These vaccine effectiveness (VE) studies regularly assess and confirm the value of flu vaccination as a public health intervention. Study results of vaccine effectiveness can vary based on study design, outcome(s) measured, population studied and the season in which the flu vaccine was studied.
CDC has been working with researchers at universities and hospitals since the 2003-2004 flu season to estimate how well flu vaccine works through observational studies using medically attended laboratory-confirmed flu as the outcome. This is the U.S. Flu Vaccine Effectiveness (VE) Network. The U.S. Flu VE Network currently consists of five study sites across the United States that measure the flu vaccine's effectiveness at preventing outpatient medical visits due to laboratory-confirmed influenza. CDC's observational studies at U.S. Flu VE Network sites measure outpatient visits* for laboratory-confirmed influenza infections using a highly accurate lab test called rRT-PCR to verify the outcome. These studies compare the odds of vaccination among outpatients with acute respiratory illness and laboratory-confirmed influenza infection to the odds of vaccination among outpatients with acute respiratory illness who test negative for influenza infection.
The overall, adjusted vaccine effectiveness estimates for influenza seasons from 2005-2016 are noted in the chart below. (Estimates are typically adjusted for study site, age, sex, underlying medical conditions, and days from illness onset to enrollment.)

Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis (SSPE) – Facts and Information
Defining SSPE:
SSPE is a form of progressive neurological disorder that affects the central nervous system of children and young adults. The disorder is slow yet persistent, and is a viral infection caused by defective measles virus. SSPE is found in every part of the world today, but is considered to be a rare disease in developed nations with less than ten-percent of people who experience the disorder in America. Widespread immunization with measles vaccine has found a ninety-percent decline in the incidence of SSPE in nations that practice such immunization. In the nations of India and Eastern Europe the incidence of SSPE remains high. There is also a higher incidence rate among males than females with a ratio of three to one.
Many young people with SSPE present a history of measles infection at an early age, commonly before the age of two, followed by a latent period of six to eight years prior to the onset of neurological symptoms. Researchers believe that despite the long interval between the initial measles infection and the onset of SSPE, the infection of the person's brain happens soon after the primary measles infection, and then progresses at a slow rate. The reasons behind the persistence and slow progression of the disorder remain unknown.
The symptoms a person with SSPE experiences are subtle. They usually include symptoms such as changes in behavior and mild mental deterioration such as memory loss. The symptoms that follow are commonly involuntary jerking movements of the person's head, limb or trunk jerks, and additional motor function disturbances. The person may experience seizure activity, or become blind. As the disorder advances, the affected person might lose the ability to walk as their muscles spasm or stiffen. The person progresses towards a comatose state, followed by a vegetative state. People with SSPE commonly die as a result of fever, heart failure, or their brain's inability to continue controlling their autonomic nervous system.
Encephalitis as a whole involves a rare complication of measles infection and is categorized into three unique types. The types of encephalitis include acute encephalitis, subacute sclerosing encephalitis (SSPE), as well as subacute measles encephalitis in the immuno-suppressed. Acute encephalitis is most likely a form of autoimmune phenomenon and not an infection of the person's brain tissue. SSPE involves a progressive course that commonly begins a number of years after the person experiences an acute infection with the measles virus during their early childhood. A defective measles virus, or vaccination, may also lead to the progression of SSPE. The disorder itself is clinically characterized by a slow and erratic course that many times results in the death of the person affected. SSPE is also referred to by the names, 'Subacute sclerosing leukoencephalitis,' and, 'Dawson's encephalitis.'
Symptoms of SSPE:
The list of signs and symptoms associated with Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis (SSPE) is long. The symptoms of SSPE can include the following:
Optic atrophy
Abnormal EEG
Myoclonic jerks
Cortical blindness
Brain inflammation
Very tense muscles
Involuntary movements
Intellectual deterioration
Homeostasis disturbances
Neurological deterioration
Increased measles antibodies in blood
Increased measles antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid
Increased gammaglobulin levels in cerebrospinal fluid
Causes of SSPE:
The measles virus usually does not cause brain damage. An abnormal immune response to the measles, or a potential mutant form of the virus, can cause either severe illness or death. Such a reaction can lead to inflammation of the person's brain, to include swelling and irritation of the person's brain that can last for a number of years. SSPE is a disorder that has been reported in all parts of the world, although in western nations it is considered to be a rare form of disease. In nations such as India, greater than twenty persons per million are affected by SSPE each year.

Should I Get the Flu Shot? CDC Data Raise Concerns
In February the CDC revealed that the 2014-2015 influenza vaccine had an efficacy rate of only 19 percent. If that was not bad enough, in June the CDC's committee that advises on immunization practices announced that nasal spray flu vaccines should not be used in the 2016-2017 flu season because, in the CDC's own words, "no protective benefit could be measured" from taking them.
Indeed, numerous peer-reviewed scientific studies have shown that the flu vaccine is not effective either at reducing the flu or reducing flu-related deaths.
When a team of researchers at the National Institutes of Health compared flu vaccine rates with influenza-related illness over a 19-year period, from 1980 to 1999, they found that deaths from the flu increased as vaccination rates increased. "In conclusion, the increase in elderly influenza vaccination coverage in the U.S. after 1980 was not accompanied by a decline in influenza-related mortality," the researchers concluded.
A study, led by a researcher at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine, found that increasing vaccination coverage did not correlate with declining mortality and the decline in influenza-related mortality could not be attributed to the flu vaccine but was rather the result of naturally acquired immunity. Observational studies crediting the flu vaccine with contributing to decreased deaths from the flu, "substantially overestimate vaccination benefit," these researchers concluded.
A study published in the American Journal of Perinatology of vaccine effectiveness in pregnant women in Northern California across five flu seasons found that women who received flu vaccines during pregnancy had the same risk for influenza-like illness as unvaccinated women, and infants born to women who received flu vaccines also had the same risks for influenza or pneumonia as infants born to unvaccinated women. In other words, vaccine status made no difference to whether or not pregnant women or their offspring got the flu.
A study published in Pediatrics International of Japanese children ages 6 months to 2 years who were vaccinated against the flu found that the influenza vaccine did not reduce the rate of influenza A infections in children under two.
CDC Presents Updated Estimates of Flu Vaccine Effectiveness for the 2014-2015 Season
Flu vaccine did not protect against drifted H3N2 viruses, but protected against vaccine-like H3N2 and B viruses
On February 26, 2015, updated interim influenza (flu) vaccine effectiveness (VE) estimates for the current 2014-2015 season were presented to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). The updated VE estimate against influenza A H3N2 viruses was 18% (95% confidence interval (CI): 6%-29%).This result is similar to the VE point estimate of 23%, which was reported in a January 16 Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) and confirms reduced protection against H3N2 viruses this season. The VE estimate against influenza B viruses this season was 45% (95% CI: 14% – 65%).
How well the flu vaccine works can vary depending on a number of factors, including the similarity between circulating influenza viruses and vaccine viruses, and the age, health or immune status of the person vaccinated. The findings for VE against H3N2 viruses this season are about one-third of the VE expected when the flu vaccine is well matched to circulating influenza viruses. The VE against influenza B viruses this season is similar to the effectiveness observed when vaccine viruses and most circulating viruses are well matched.
ACIP votes down use of LAIV for 2016-2017 flu season
For Immediate Release: Wednesday, June 22, 2016
CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) today voted that live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV), also known as the "nasal spray" flu vaccine, should not be used during the 2016-2017 flu season. ACIP continues to recommend annual flu vaccination, with either the inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV) or recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV), for everyone 6 months and older.
ACIP is a panel of immunization experts that advises the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This ACIP vote is based on data showing poor or relatively lower effectiveness of LAIV from 2013 through 2016.

Flu shot effectiveness for 2015-16 disappointing, data shows
Flu shot protects better than last year, but not good enough, experts say
It's the time of year when experts crunch the numbers to see how well the flu shot worked. The result? Better than last year, but still not good enough.
"Overall, just shy of 45 to 50 per cent," said Dr. Danuta Skowronski of the BC Centre for Disease Control, who presented the data to the Global Influenza Vaccine Effectiveness meeting at the World Health Organization last week.
"That's lower than we would like to see, but it's an improvement over the previous year, because it couldn't be worse, frankly"
In 2014-15, the flu shot offered essentially zero protection against the circulating influenza virus of that season. Back then, the prevailing strain was H3N2.
A Shot Never Worth Taking: The Flu Vaccine ~ by Kelly Brogan, MD
•It's not indicated: I'm sure you don't know a single person who has died of the flu, and if you think you do, I can almost guarantee you that the diagnosis was not confirmed in a way that ruled out the 150-200 infectious pathogens that cause flu-like syndromes, none of which would be "covered" by the vaccine. Despite the astronomical figures the CDC flashes before us of "flu deaths", there were 18 (yes, 1-8) confirmed in 2001, for example. Access to these figures is suspiciously concealed, but in the end, forget the stats, and use some common sense to see the fear mongering and sales marketing for what it is.
•It doesn't work: The Cochrane Database – an objective, gold-standard assessment of available evidence has plainly stated, in TWO STUDIES, that there is no data to support efficacy in children under two, and in adults. Even the former Chief Vaccine Officer at the FDA states: "there is no evidence that any influenza vaccine thus far developed is effective in preventing or mitigating any attack of influenza." Liking the idea of being protected from the flu does not equate to being protected from the flu. That's essentially what your vaccine-promoting doctor (or pharmacist) is engaging in – promoting an idea.
Study 2010: Vaccines for preventing influenza in healthy adults.
Main results:
The corresponding figures for poor vaccine matching were 2% and 1% (RD 1, 95% CI 0% to 3%). These differences were not likely to be due to chance. Vaccination had a modest effect on time off work and had no effect on hospital admissions or complication rates. Inactivated vaccines caused local harms and an estimated 1.6 additional cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome per million vaccinations. The harms evidence base is limited.
On this basis, vaccination shows very limited effects: NNV 92 (95% CI 63 to 201) against ILI in pregnant women and NNV 27 (95% CI 18 to 185) against laboratory-confirmed influenza in newborns from vaccinated women.Live aerosol vaccines have an overall effectiveness corresponding to a NNV 46 (95% CI 29 to 115).The performance of one-dose or two-dose whole virion pandemic vaccines was higher, showing a NNV of 16 (95% CI 14 to 20) against ILI and a NNV of 35 (95% CI 33 to 47) against influenza, while a limited impact on hospitalisation was found (NNV 94, 95% CI 70 to 1022).Vaccination had a modest effect on time off work and had no effect on hospital admissions or complication rates. Inactivated vaccines caused local harms. No evidence of association with serious adverse events was found, but the harms evidence base was limited.The overall risk of bias in the included trials is unclear because it was not possible to assess the real impact of bias.

Flu Vaccine Effectiveness in Question
Flu season is rapidly approaching and, with it, constant reminders to get vaccinated. This despite the fact that mounting research suggests this approach to flu prevention may be ill advised for long-term health, and doesn't actually work in the first place.
In January 2015, U.S. government officials admitted that, in most years, flu shots are, at best, 50 to 60 percent effective at preventing lab confirmed influenza requiring medical care.1
Then, in December 2015, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) analysis2 of flu vaccine effectiveness revealed that, between 2005 and 2015, the influenza vaccine was less than 50 percent effective more than half of the time.

Flu vaccine, Tamiflu shortage as influenza sweeps U.S.
Fluzone--courtesy of Sanofi Pasteur
As one of the worst flu seasons in a decade sweeps the United States, some flu vaccine and drug manufacturers find themselves in short supply of their products. Still, the high demand offers a welcome financial boost.
Sanofi ($SNY), the largest flu vaccine manufacturer in the U.S., sold out of four of the 6 different dosages of Fluzone seasonal flu vaccine due to high demand. Meanwhile, Roche ($RHHBY) told Reuters that the company lacks enough doses of liquid Tamiflu, a drug given to children to shorten the duration of a bout of flu. Demand for the drug only grew when the FDA extended its approval to include treatment for infants 2 weeks of age and older.
While hopeful that recipients of the drug will deal with temporary delays in shipments, Roche will likely more than double Tamiflu sales from last flu season. During the 2011-2012 flu season, Tamiflu brought in about $350 million. Morningstar analyst Karen Anderson says the total this season will likely hover around $750 million, boosting overall Roche revenue this year about 1%, Reuters reports. Still, that total is nothing compared with sales during the 2009 H1N1 pandemic; sales of Tamiflu that year hit $3 billion.
Flu manufacturers plan to produce 137 million doses of vaccine this season, 112 million of which were already received by late 2012. Sanofi produced 60 million of those doses, while GlaxoSmithKline ($GSK) planned to make 25 million doses. By Jan. 4, manufacturers had distributed 128 million doses. Most conventional flu vaccines are grown in fertilized chicken eggs, a process that takes months to wrap. This means manufacturers can't simply ramp up production and expect to meet immediate demand.
As of Jan. 11, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicated that 47 states had widespread flu. The CDC offers a weekly report tracking the spread of influenza.
