Thanks to Donna Carrillo and Dr. Tenpenny for providing the links to the
FluMist Package insert and the FDA Q&A on FluMist so you can see for
yourself how truly dangerous this hyped up new "nasal vaccine" is.
Here's the link to the FluMist package insert --

Are there certain people who should not receive FluMist?
As with any medication, individuals should check with their health care
provider before receiving any flu vaccines. According to the approved
package insert, the following people should not get the intranasal
influenza vaccine:
*Adults 50 years of age or older, or children younger than 5 should not
receive FluMist.
*FluMist should not be given for any reason to people with immune
suppression, including those with immune deficiency diseases, such as AIDS
or cancer, and people who are being treated with drugs that cause
immunosuppression.
*The safety of FluMist in people with asthma or other reactive airway
diseases has not been established, and therefore, is not recommended for
use in patients with a history of reactive airway problems.
*Additionally, FluMist should not be given to people with chronic
underlying medical conditions that may predispose them to severe flu
infections. For these people, the injected vaccine is indicated.
*Individuals with egg allergies should not receive this or any other flu
vaccine.
*People who have health problems associated with heart disease, kidney
disease, lung disease, or metabolic diseases such as diabetes, anemia and
other blood disorders should not receive FluMist.
*Because Reye syndrome in children has been associated with administration
of aspirin during influenza virus infections, FluMist is not recommended in
children and adolescents 5-17 years of age if they are receiving aspirin or
aspirin-containing therapy.
*Pregnant women (in their second or third trimesters during influenza
season) should not receive FluMist.
*Anyone with a history of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) should not receive
FluMist.
*Physicians, nurses, family members, or anyone else coming in close contact
with anyone with a weakened immune system should not receive FluMist.
THIS MEANS ALL THE SHOPPERS AT WALMART, CORRECT????
