I have never been a proponent of the flu shot. The whole subject of vaccinations is a murky and difficult one, since for things like polio and smallpox, it is only the eradication of the diseases through vaccinations that allows us the luxury of discussion.
However, while protection against life-threatening diseases can only be applauded, the lengthening list of non-fatal "problems" that are now approved for shots is a different story.
Chief among my concerns is that the immune system will fail to develop normally, we will in effect become shot- dependent and susceptible to many lesser evils such as allergies and bowel and digestive disturbances, together with the big ones that so far have no protective vaccine, the many auto-immune diseases, and cancer.
Here comes something else to worry about with the flu shot, though - anyone for suicidal thoughts and "disturbances in consciousness, abnormal behavior, delirium, hallucination, delusion and convulsion " to quote the Japanese label for tamiflu?
