How does the flu shot make you sick?
Imagine you are at war. Your immune system is the total sum of your available troops. When you get the flu shot, your troops are sent scrambling in multiple directions after three (or four) different viruses, which may or may not be actually causing disease this year in your area of the world. Subtract those troops from your total army. ~~They're busy.
Out of what's left, some troops are sent off to fight the toxins - formaldehyde and mercury, because the flu shot triggers the toxin arm of your immune system, too. ~~Subtract those troops from your total army. They're busy.
Now... let's say while your viral troops and your toxin troops are out chasing down false flags, something else comes along that is a REAL threat, and your immune system needs to respond. Something like a bacterial infection... tonsillitis, bronchitis, strep, bacterial meningitis... You really need your troops but they aren't there because they're too busy chasing after three "hypothetical" threats of flu virus and two very real threats of toxic assault.
What happens? You get sick. You tell your doctor, "The flu shot gave me the flu" and your doctor says, "That can't happen because the flu shot is a killed virus." The flu shot (killed virus) can't give you the SAME flu virus and technically, it can't give you the flu.
What it CAN and DOES do is send your available immune resources - your troops - off in all directions chasing after false threats, leaving you more vulnerable to the real threats - like bacterial infections... and other viral infections, including enteroviruses and any of the 200+ other viral strains that cause influenza or influenza-like illness (ILI) not covered in the vaccine.
Vaccines are routinely tested against each other or using the aluminum adjuvant as a "placebo." There are no studies using a true placebo in vaccine trials... at least not in the United States.
There WAS a true saline placebo used in a recent clinical trial of a flu shot in China. In that trial, the researchers found no difference between the trivalent flu shot and saline placebo when it comes to prevention of influenza. Translation: it didn't work.
What they DID find is that those who got the flu shot had a 340% increase in acute respiratory infections (ARI) that were not caused by influenza.
So... the flu shot didn't work, AND it made recipients much more likely to get sick with non-influenza respiratory infections and that effect lasted over the next NINE MONTHS.
Here is the study:
