Flu vaccines failed to provide protection this year, particularly among elderly

(NaturalNews) Even with all its number-fudging and statistic-twisting, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was unable to make the case this year that flu shots are legitimately effective at preventing the flu. Finally admitting what we have been saying for years here at Natural News, the CDC appears to be slowly coming to terms with the fact that flu shots are nothing more than medical quackery and snake oil, particularly among the elderly to whom they are most recommended.

As reported by Reuters, the flu shot was only marginally effective, and the numbers were admittedly far worse for the elderly. Protection was so bad with the elderly that Reuters saw fit to declare the flu shot "largely failed" to protect the elderly during this past flu season.

According to the CDC data itself, the efficacy of seasonal influenza vaccines among those 65 years of age and older during the 2012-2013 flu season was a mere nine percent. What this means is that 91 percent of elderly individuals given a flu shot derived absolutely no benefit from the vaccine, as they developed the flu anyway. Many of these same individuals also likely suffered negative side effects in the form of lowered immunity and increased heavy metal toxicity.
