Pentagon Study: Flu Shot Raises Risk of Coronavirus by 36% (Read that Again!)

Pixabay
A 2020 study by the Pentagon found that the flu shot INCREASES the risks of coronavirus by 36%. “Receiving influenza vaccination may increase the risk of other respiratory viruses, a phenomenon known as “virus interference” and “examining non-influenza viruses specifically, the odds of coronavirus in vaccinated individuals were significantly higher when compared to unvaccinated individuals.”

The article includes other studies that suggest an increased risk of viral respiratory infections from the flu shot. The Cochrane Collaboration’s 2010 meta-analysis of influenza-vaccine studies found the influenza vaccination has “no effect” on reducing hospitalization, and there is “no evidence that vaccines prevent viral transmission or complications.” -GEG

On March 12th, 2020, Anderson Cooper and Dr. Sanjay Gupta held a global town hall on “Corona Facts and Fears.” During the discussion, Anderson said to the viewing audience, “And, again, if you are concerned about coronavirus, and you haven’t gotten a flu shot…you should get a flu shot.”

Setting safety and efficacy of influenza vaccination aside, is Anderson’s claim that the flu shot will help people fight COVID-19 remotely true? The short answer is no.

In fact, the results of many peer-reviewed, published studies prove that Anderson’s recommendation may have been the worst advice he could have given the public.

In searching the literature, the only study we have been able to find assessing flu shots and coronavirus is a 2020 US Pentagon study that found that the flu shot INCREASES the risks from coronavirus by 36%. “Receiving influenza vaccination may increase the risk of other respiratory viruses, a phenomenon known as “virus interference…’vaccine derived’ virus interference was significantly associated with coronavirus…” Here are the findings:

2020 Pentagon study: Flu vaccines increase risk of coronavirus by 36% 

Examining non-influenza viruses specifically, the odds of coronavirus in vaccinated individuals were significantly higher when compared to unvaccinated individuals with an odds ratio (association between an exposure and an outcome) of 1.36. In other words, the vaccinated were 36% more likely to get coronavirus.

Isn’t that just stunning?? The flu shot is supposed to protect people from the virus of the seasonal flu, but exacerbates the Wuhan Chinese virus. We’ve wondered how it is so many nursing home residents have caught it and died. Did a bunch of Chinese people come from China to visit? Or been in contact with others who had? How in the world did it get into nursing homes??? Aren’t all residents of nursing facilities “forced” to have the flu shot every year? Uh huh… and there it is. I’ve NEVER, ever had a flu shot, and I never will… Read more »

So is DOCTOR Anderson Cooper going to have “BLOOD ON HIS HANDS” for telling people to get the flu shot to decrease their chance of getting the covid-19 virus?!?!

So how many deaths are attributed to Cooper’s medical advice (I didn’t know that Cooper had a Medical License!!)?

After all, they are trying to blame President Trump for the deaths, when HE was the one who took the first DECISIVE actions!!
