WTWizard, you are literally insane if you believe that you can get Alzheimers from the flu shot or that 'population control' drugs are in it. Your vitamins do literally nothing to prevent you from getting the flu.

Did you even bother reading all my posts? Yes, some people may have some sort of allergic reaction, but that's abnormal. They did not get the flu however. If you're not allergic to the shot or have some illness that may make it unsafe, don't get it. That's common sense. Otherwise, you should get it.

this won't hurt the WTBS at all. The people in the Order (Bethelites, Missionaries, CO's) actually do have health insurance for emergencies only. I never had to use so it, but it's there.

ShirleyW, it's pretty self explanatory. There's no live virii ergo you cannot the flu. There's literally nothing alive that can start attacking your body.
I'm not sure how I can state it any simpler.

Getting the flu and having 'flu like symptoms' are not the same thing.
For example, during Christmas I came down with Influenza-like illness (ILI for short). It has the same symptoms but it is not the flu.

Oh geez. Did someone bring up thimerosal. What's next: Vaccines cause autism?
edit: Ahahah. That link posted did say it. What a bunch of maroons.
Aguest: Please tell me how a vaccine containing no live virii can give you the flu? Hint: It can't. Please read my post to see how someone 'can get the flu' despite the flu shot.

Wow. A lot people in here buying into snake oil like colloidal silver.
Fact: You cannot get the flu from the shot. Once you get the shot it can take a couple weeks for it to do it's thing. If you get the flu after the shot, then that means you were exposed to a different strain, you were exposed before the shot took effect, or you already had the flu in your system before the shot.
Now it's entirely possible that you could have an allergy that would prevent you from getting the flu. In that case, god speed. A lot of people have mentioned things to 'prevent' the flu. That stuff is literally all bunk. The flu is a virus and the stuff mentioned has absolutely zero anti-viral properties.
This stuff is all fact. End of story

Law School/Medical School Reading Book on Genetics and Jehovah's Witnesses
by Justitia Themis inthe book is recommended reading in my bioethics law class.
this is a law/medicine class that combines students from the school of medicine, the school of public health, and the school of law, so a broad cross-section of people will base their opinions of jws on this book.
my fellow students include a working neonatologist, a japanese health department employee, a chinese gentleman who works for some chinese gov't agency, a north african lawyer, an australian international health care worker, an undergrad ethics professor from a different, but local, university, and a social worker who is a fellow at a local pediatric bioethics foundation.

I ignored your socio-economic bullshit because there is no correlation. There are smart,dumb,poor, and rich people who buy into alternative medicine garbage.
it also doesn't matter if doctors and hospitals use holistic medicine. That stuff has a placebo effect at best and is dangerous at worst. People who buy into it are dumb. That's a straight up fact.

And only a small minority of all the witnesses i've encountered used alternative medicine. i guess my anecdotal data trumps yours.
also i'm sorry to tell you but alternative medicine is all snake oil.
the wt writing cautionary statements about alternative medicine doesn't mean jack shit. they write warnings for literally everything. see the thread here http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/244690/1/Crazy-Weird-Quotes-in-1-15-WT-Article-WT-Society-Opinions-Nothing-More

I see. When you stated what I quoted that implies that JW's have a thing for alternative, which is probably not the case. I'm going to guess that the percentage of JW's who use alternative medicine is the same as non-JW's.
Also, I'm sure you know this, but for anyone reading this, using alternative medicine for treating cancer is dumb.
