    Default Not for human use. (Flu shot.)

    I noticed some discussion about Flu Shots recently, thourght this was relevant.

    NOT FOR HUMAN USE

    OCTOBER 8, 2004. Here is an interesting note on an ingredient found in at least some flu vaccines. The last line is the kicker.

    The following caution about Triton X100 is from Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, D.O.

    "I'm writing an article for our office news letter on WHY not to get a flu shot. Looking at the additives in the new shots, ran across this chemical, glycol p-isooctylphenyl ether.

    When I looked it up found this to be Triton X100 (on the site). There are 4 versions of Triton X100 (basically a detergent and emulsifier). Look at the last line---same on EVERY form of the chemical."

    end of note

    If this chemical is not for human use, why is it in the vaccine?

    Our hospital has been giving the shot to associates for a few days now. The doctor who wrote this is a doc. of Osteopathic medicine. These docs are different than MD's.

    I have been to a few D.O's before and they want to treat the whole body as an illness it seemed, and DON'T care for medecine much. They will prescribe, and do, but it's a strange experience. At least for me it was, i know my body pretty well, and know when i have a medical problem, these doctors always always argued with me about my symptoms.

    Dunno, anyway this years vaccine came from England. We had some that was "tainted" word has it so never used.

    We have tons of ingredients in meds. that are really not for human consumption.

    With every shot patients are getting an allergic reaction sheet as well. There seem to be many listed this year. Hmmmm.

    it looks like it is a stabilizer for the vaccine.

    I may have many faults, but being wrong ain't one of them.

    I just read about the contaminated vaccine. I don't vaccinate anyway, so it's not an issue for me.
    I know of the differencies between Doctors. Thourght the article was worth posting anyway.
