Universal Flu Shot that Vaccinates for Life a Step Closer


Researchers have found several patients infected with the 2009 H1N1 pandemic flu strain have developed antibodies that are protective against a variety of flu strains.

They believe that the unexpected turn of events could lead to the "holy grail" of a vaccine that protects against all strains of the disease.

It would also bring to an end the annual race to develop a vaccine for the latest strain of the disease and could even lead to a one-injection for life.'

  1. Yeah, well, humans are losing the ability to produce antibodies and resisatance to diseases simply because you now have people developing diseases in labs and tampering with everything.

    When we were young, we didn't get sick every 5 minutes simply because we were mostly breast-fed and were able to produce antobodies to defend against illness, naturally. Also, we didn't run to the doctor every week for antibiotics for a small ailment, therefore the body was able to develop a stronger resistance and fight bacteria and viruses more easily.

    We had injections, but they were few and far between. We didn't have flu jabs every year.

    Take hay fever, for example, I had resistance to it all my childhood life. In my late teens and early 20s, I had started to suffer from mild hayfever, I then discovered, bee polllen, which I was taking before the peak hayfever season. Now, I no longer suffer with hayfever at all, simply because the body immune system has built up the strength to be able to fight off the pollen, naturally.

    I can't say the same applies to the present day. Antibiotics for everything and a new flu jab every year. How is the body supposed to develop its own natural resistance?

    Oh, and then how about all the GM products we are forced to eat without our knowledge, did anyone ever think how that would affect us in the long-term?

    Flu jab this, flu jab that. I am sick of hearing about the blasted flu jab.

    If we were eating naturally occuring foods instead of all the tampered and chemically altered and processed foods, which do not easily absorb or assimilate into the body, people wouldn't get so sick all the time. It's just a fact.
