Vacccinating Parents to Protect Babies

One way of getting healthy adults to take flu shots is to convince them that this will protect their young babies. I found references to the 'coccooning' effect of family vaccinations, but when I looked into the study this was based on, I found it had nothing to do with rates of illness, hospitalizations and deaths in the babies in these families, but only with how effective this was as a strategy to get parents to take flu shots.

Actual study this article refers to only studied whether vaccinating parents before leaving the hospital increased immunization coverage, not whether it decreased complications or deaths from flu in newborns

All of you are deceived. "H1N1" is neither "a virus", nor is it "a germ". "H1N1" is a scarecrow ! You are made afraid & that makes you dependent on all the "experts" who, of course, depend on those who pay them. "H1N1" is like "Al Quaida", it`s a label. Basically it is only a big lie. If you hear the lie often enough & from the people you trust, then eventually it sinks in (proof of which you see on this channel). Inventing dangers coming from abroad is an old method of crowd control.

I believe that. There is quite a lot of scientific evidence in support of what you are saying.

[tomthemd]

LIES! People making money off of these conspiracy theories. Don't believe them!

The vaccine is not dangerous. Bang yourself on the head. You are ridiculous. Vaccination is the only way to prevent getting the flu, once exposed to the germs.

[thetruthergirls]

That is not true. Even in studies where they test for serologically proven influenza, many people will test positive without having gotten sick.

If vaccines were the only way to prevent influenza, everybody would be sick all the time. But we are not sick, are we? occasionally, we get sick, but most of the time we are well, even though all kinds of germs are all around us.

Obviously, our immune systems have other ways of coping, or the human race would have died out long ago.

What money? I have been doing this here and on my website for over a year and have not made one cent. Now I may get a few cents for each time people click on the ads next to my videos. So what? You think I'll get rich like that? maybe if I'm lucky it will help cover the cost of maintaining my website and printing flyers.

You don't understand the concept of people wanting to share information, I guess.

Flu viruses help us evolve and grow strong!

[jamesa4050]

your last question is a very good one.

(why have we lost confidence in nature...?)

but i think it is a rhetorical one. you already know the answer and are trying to get us to think.

great video.

It's funny when people who don't know what they're talking about . . . . talk.

Oh nO Lysol just ahd a commerical about using their disinfectant wipes to combat

H1N1 Lysol MUST be in on the NWO take over of the world and hey the first part of their name is LY like a lie WHY? didn't we see this before?

[kolkrabe19]

"quite a lot of scientific evidence...". Haha, but it´s only there in provable scarecrow science and never in the common H1N1 believer folks science.

[tomthemd]

Yes, why don't we loose ourselves in the discussion about if a virus is a germ or not ?(which it - by the way - is). I'll only leave this last comment here. Don't believe what some conspiracy theorists say. Beware of people like Icke and Burgermeister, who are not interested about the truth at all, but about your donation and about you attending their lecture (you need to buy a ticket of course). Flu shot is safe and will stay safe. Listen to the virologists and vaccinologists, not the media.

You said it yourself ,it is not the proper form .

[tomthemd]

The joke's on you. A virus can be considered a germ. Germ is not the proper term - of course - but it belongs to germs. Check it in the dictionary, if you don't believe me.
