FDA, Flu Shots and Martians

The FDA is going after online supplement companies for making Flu preventing claims on natural products like Garlic, Resveratrol, Echinacea, Elderberry, Ashwagandha and Astragalus Immune System Support.

The FDA's National Health Fraud Coordinator Gary Coody said "There are no over-the-counter products that shorten the duration or severity of the flu,".

Why Can't we stop the FDA from making preventative claims when promoting the Flu Shot?
The Flu Shot has shown to be ineffective at preventing the Flu !! (British Journal Of Medicine, Cochrane Library)

The Director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy, as well as its Center of Excellence for Influenza Research and Surveillance Michael T. Osterholm said “We have overpromoted and overhyped this vaccine,” he also stated “It does not protect as promoted. It’s all a sales job: it’s all public relations.”

“I’m an insider,” Dr. Osterholm said. “Until we started this project, I was one of the people out there heavily promoting influenza vaccine use. It was only with this study that I looked and said, ‘What are we doing?’ ”

In a study published in The Cochrane Library titled "Vaccines For Preventing Influenza In Adults"
the study looked at data from 1960 to 2010 and found that Influenza Vaccines only reduced Influenza like symptoms by 12% !!

Even a Former FDA Chief Vaccine Control Officer and research virologist said the flu shot doesn't work !!

"There is no evidence that any influenza vaccine thus far developed is effective in preventing or mitigating any attack of influenza. The producers of these vaccines know that they are worthless, but they go on selling them, anyway."
                                                             Dr. J. Anthony Morris

I bet if I was to research Garlic, Echinacea, Vitamin D, Vitamin C that they would all do better than 12%

Hell I bet praying to a Martian would do better at preventing the flu than a flu vaccine !!
