There’s a very good reason flu vaccines are a waste of resources. Virus mutations between seasonal outbreaks mean efficacy will only occur by accident. See :https://www.intechopen.com/online-first/1238245
“It is also an arithmetic projection, not a measured result, because no trial has ever compared this product to no vaccine at all.”
Has anyone ever measured flu outcomes of an unvaccinated-by-flu-shot population, and all the sequelae associated with coming down with flu on that unvaxxed population?
Excellent breakdown of the math for us non-experts.
And of course, no long term data yet on side effects of an mRNA flu shot.
