I was immediately struck by this statement from the Washington State Department of Health: “It is especially important that people who may have exposure to domestic or wild birds get a seasonal flu vaccine. While the seasonal flu vaccine will not prevent bird flu infection, it reduces the risk of becoming sick with both human and avian influenza viruses at the same time.”

That statement is blatantly false. The flu vaccine targets the immune system of the injected person to the antigen they were injected with, making them more susceptible to everything else in the environment, including constantly mutating human and avian influenza viruses. On this Thanksgiving Eve, give thanks if you understand.
