We’re told to get the flu shot each year—but did you know it may fail 65% of the time? CDC data from the Influenza VE Network shows a 65% failure rate between 2014 and 2018. If it’s that unreliable, why the push? Learn more here: picdata.org/influenza-flu-

Should parents be concerned about the risks of side effects from the DTaP vaccine? There are multiple methods to measure these risks, but none of them prove that DTaP vaccine is safer than diptheria, tetanus, and pertussis. To make an informed choice, do your research first.

An FDA paper made a critical error. It claimed aluminum exposure from vaccines was safely below the limit—but that conclusion was based on a faulty input. PIC broke down the mistake on ResearchGate. physiciansforinformedconsent.org/landmark-fda-p

Did you know? Each flu season, the CDC conducts studies to assess how well flu vaccines are working. These studies help determine if the vaccine is providing the expected level of protection—but what do the results actually show? Stay informed and read the facts here:

Did you know that flu viruses are constantly changing? This is mostly due to antigenic drift (or mutations in the genes). So flu vaccines are regularly reformulated based on a “best guess” of which viruses might circulate during the coming flu season. đŸ€” This is one of 9 Flu
