This is the exact argument I have against them. Not only can they be ineffective based on miscalculations on the part of the manufacturer, when it's found out that they are, nothing is done to correct this. In fact they're pushed HARDER to get rid of the excess stock of a defective product.The way flu vaccines work is simple
At any point there are upwards of 40-50 flu strains out there. The experts made a guess which ones will be the most prevalent next season and then they make vaccines for those.
The experts are also frequently wrong, because there's a lot of strains and it's hard to predict.
Then there's a few businesses making money off it too, pushing for everyone to get those shots
And in the end, I never get one and I never get sick either. As far as I know nobody else here gets the things either
They... use dead babies in them? OH GODS YESSSSSSSS!Well at least it wasn't jumping straight to 'aborted infants are being used in vaccines and even give you aids!' If you don't get them and don't get sick, well, so? The elderly and kids/families of large amounts of people don't get that lucky and could use the immune boost if it's available. While there is things to be said for over-care, which is why we're running into superbugs immune to the current generation of vaccines and drug treatments, but that's an entirely different tangent to rant with.
How many people have you actually asked though? A thousand? A hundred? Just a handful? It's not like people walk around to announce that they have been vaccinated.The way flu vaccines work is simple

I can't tell what you're suspecting. Here are my best guesses.Personaly dont trust the white coats mostly. (Own experience) Gonna bring just one case not to bore
Ive been contacted by phone by a certain"health centre" im registered with. A Lady with nice voice told me they are TESTING new asthma medicine/inhaler. I refused to be the "paid" lab rat. Month or two later i went for the annual astma check(same health centre) and my doctor proposed me a new asthma inhaler "that many other people recommend as better that the one i used currently..."
You must be registered to see the links
My guess here is they couldn't get enough amount of people to test the inhaler on by recruiting by phone so later the doctors might recruit patients for them by saying everybody "loves it" while it is actually still being tested. Just saying there are all kind of doctors out there, good and bad.I can't tell what you're suspecting. Here are my best guesses.
1. The inhaler got good reviews from the people who joined in the test, so now it's the inhaler they give people. This is evil because of self-selection bias? People who wouldn't like the new inhaler also wouldn't like the test, so they didn't get represented? This one seems most likely to me.
2. The "new" inhaler was really part of the test, which they were now secretly doing on people without asking? Why did they ask at first then?
3. The "test" was just a cover to give people an evil inhaler? Similar question: Why bother with the "test" and not skip to giving everyone the new inhaler?
Well be a chum and help me understand what your problem here is, not that I disagree that theres black sheep in every profession but what exactly did you want of the doctors there?My guess here is they couldn't get enough amount of people to test the inhaler on by recruiting by phone so later the doctors might recruit patients for them by saying everybody "loves it" while it is actually still being tested.

No Pervy, im not trying to play a smartass (but im doing a bad job i guess) just dont like being lied to. The inhaler might be the best one on the whole globe and i get your angle about maybe the test phase was finnished and stuff but isnt it a little strange that im being bothered with "annual asthma check letters once in...half year and a guy who went there(days later than i did and agreed to doctors offer to use the new, better one) and he told me he already had 3 letters saying "come back and leave feedback" in 2 months time?Well be a chum and help me understand what your problem here is, not that I disagree that theres black sheep in every profession but what exactly did you want of the doctors there?
Should they have told you something along the line of 'This new spray sucks and you shouldn't use it'?
Know what also does that? Untreated sicknesses. I doubt you even read the hippocratic oath but it doesn't say 'do no harm' else no surgeon would take it, it says treat sick folks 'to their benefit'. I dunno about you, but I'd not mind rectal bleeding if the alternative was a necrotizing fasciitis going untreated.And yet there are medicines that cause you to bleed from your asshole... And that's not even the worst side affect one can experience from a substance that is intended to improve their health. Yet physicians prescribe them still.
Doesn't seem to live up to the hippocratic oath to me.
Hey, not gonna lie, it is a bit odd, I got no clue what health system you act in and some of them are corrupt. I'm just telling you not to overthink these things either, what stops you from giving the new thing a try and saying it's crap if it is.but isnt it a little strange that im being bothered with "annual asthma check letters once in...half year and a guy who went there(days later than i did and agreed to doctors offer to use the new, better one) and he told me he already had 3 letters saying "come back and leave feedback" in 2 months time?
Primum non nocere was added later, in 17th century or something like that (don't care as much).Noxamvero et maleficium propulsabo.
