Here's one I read about. Probably not the same one because the numbers are different than yours........but what this study shows is that 26% of the confirmed flu case deaths were in children who had been vaccinated. The two factors i havent looked into yet are......1. Are they counting children under 6 months who died who cant get the flu vaccine yet and 2. What percent of children get the flu shot...

Decided to look that last one up........


The CDC says that almost 60% of children are vaccinated every year. Maybe that's true but I find that hard to believe. I think its probably a lot closer to 30% than it is 60%.

I dont think that they're purposefully misleading......most of the time. I do think that the few people who would actually complete a cold call survey done by the CDC are also probably the type of ppl to religiously get flu shots every year. Thus a skewed poll. ( probably run by the same polling companies who ran the polling for the presidential election. Haha )
