Flu 'epidemic' numbers don't add up: Vaccine scare tactics strike again...

The federal government has a nasty habit of hyping up the severity of the flu every year in order to scare as many people as possible into getting annual flu shots; and this year is no exception. Even though available scientific data fails to show that flu shots even work as promised, authorities are continuing to push them on the public anyway, citing shaky figures about alleged infection rates that leave more questions than answers as to whether or not this year's flu "epidemic" is really as severe as we are all being told.

The mainstream media is currently reporting, for instance, that 9.8 percent of the deaths tabulated in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)'s 122 Cities Mortality Reporting System for the week of January 13-19 were caused by pneumonia and influenza, and that people should get their flu shots immediately to avoid this worsening epidemic. The official epidemic threshold for the flu is considered to be 7.3 percent of deaths, which based on the 9.8 percent rate translates into a 34 percent surplus in apparent flu deaths above and beyond this threshold.

But in the very same breath, the CDC also admits that only about 26 percent of people who have visited their doctors or local emergency rooms with flu-like symptoms actually ended up having the flu. This implies that about three-quarters of all the earlier-reported cases of the flu from months back, when authorities were aggressively hounding people to get their flu shots to avoid the coming "epidemic," were not actually the flu at all. Does this also mean that only a small fraction of the CDC's reported 9.8 percent of flu deaths were actually caused by the flu? Full story...
