A British study suggests getting a seasonal flu shot can not only prevent the flu -- it may also prevent heart attacks in some people.

Once again more meaningless studies without proof, this nothing more then to promote the H1N1 flu vaccine afterall CP24 local or rather (Government news) have been promoting the H1N1 flu vaccine since day one.

The study, by researchers from the United Kingdom, looked at 78 706 patients aged 40 years or older from 379 family practices in England and Wales. Of the total, 16 012 had had a heart attack and 8472 of these patients had been vaccinated. The researchers found that influenza vaccination within the past year was associated with a significantly reduced rate of heart attack. However, pneumococcal vaccination showed no additional benefit.

OK, so the sample size is not bad at least. I'm still not sure how they came to this conclusion though......Plus they claim pneumococcal vaccination shows no benefit, but on the same site another study claims "Pneumococcal vaccine associated with 50 percent lower risk of heart attacks" Source

It's all BS really.

This from the article...

It's believed that inflammation caused by influenza may cause plaque inside
coronary arteries to break off and cause a heart attack.

So if coming down with the flu sometimes causes inflammation, which
sometimes causes heart attacks...And sometimes getting the flu vaccine
causes the flu, then...

Getting the flu vaccine can cause heart attacks.

I dunno. I guess in gov-speak, this could pass for "fact".

After all, if you die or suffer disease from exposure to aluminum, adjuvants, virus DNA, mercury or other warm-n-fuzzy components of vaccines -- technically, you did not have a heart attack. But also keep in mind, according to gov-speak, "down" is the new "up".

One has to wonder why it is that TPTB are getting so desperate for us to acquiesce to THEIR WISH for us to willingly opt for flu vaccinations en-masse. Their crappy tactics are becoming more and more transparent. In fact it would be laughable, if the sinister nature of their actions wasn't so rotten. May they all rot in hell when they get there.

Well taking into consideration that the flu season is upon us and with the blunder of the pandemic that never was again people will be very skeptical about getting any type of flu vaccines this year as the vaccine is combine so the big propaganda machine is working hard so they don't lose profits like last year and big the pandemic scare that never was.
