Nasal Flu ‘Vaccine’ and Children
Filed Under influenza, prevention | Comments Off
When you hear the word “Vaccine” visions of screaming/crying children usually come to mind and just hearing that word can bring back horrible childhood memories of our own vaccination experiences. This is why I have a hard time with the word vaccine being used in the same sentence with the new nasal spray that is being promoted and targeted towards children especially. With all the medical salespeople out there, you would think they would have come out with a more appealing term for the “FluMist vaccine.”
Children seem to have a high success rate with this nasal spray, when used annually in lieu of the traditional flu ’shot.’ Kids tend to get the flu twice as often as adults, through their exposure at school and day care programs, and because of this, they are often the cause of infection throughout the family, which includes the fragile elderly and babies.
Nasal spray flu prevention could have a significant effect on the public’s ability to deal with flu season. Having a trained medical professional to administer injections, would not be necessary, therefore the product could then become more accessible to the public. There would be a greater possibility of having the ‘vaccine’ administered at schools in mass, along with other public facilities.
Just think -no more kicking and screaming, just a quick squirt in the nose and it’s over before your little bugger knows what happened. I feel better already!
