Flumist contains a weakened 'live' virus

Submitted by northstar on Fri, 09/18/2009 - 20:42.

The nasal spray contains a weakened live virus, while injections contain killed and fragmented virus. The spray gives a stronger immune reaction but carries a small risk that the virus will multiply too quickly in people with compromised immunity.

The normal side effects of FluMist include fever, headache, muscle aches, runny nose, vomiting and wheezing. These side effects, of course, mimic the flu, leading to the rumor that flu vaccines cause the illness. But health agencies say the side effects cannot expand into a life-threatening infection

Why does the spray have a live virus?

CDC: First swine flu vaccines may be nasal spray
Initial trickle of swine flu vaccine may be 3.4 million doses of nasal spray, CDC says
By Mike Stobbe, AP Medical Writer
Friday September 18, 2009, 5:35 pm EDT

ATLANTA (AP) -- The first doses of swine flu vaccine may all be the nasal spray version, government health officials said Friday.

The government has said a trickle of vaccine will be available in early October, but on Friday they defined the size of that trickle -- an estimated 3.4 million doses.

Currently it looks like all of them will be a nasal spray vaccine that is approved only for healthy people ages 2 to 49, said Dr. Jay Butler, an official with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The nasal spray, called FluMist, is not recommended for some of the people most in danger of severe swine flu complications. That includes pregnant women, children younger than 2, and people with asthma and other chronic respiratory diseases.

FluMist was designed with kids in mind, and the company's research suggests it is more effective in youngsters than a shot in the arm against seasonal flu.

Studies in adults have found that shots are more effective. Some researchers think that's because adults have had longer exposure to flu viruses and flu vaccines and their immune systems don't respond as dramatically to the live-virus vaccine.

Dr. Daniel Jernigan, deputy director of the CDC's influenza division, said there's not that much difference in effectiveness between age groups. "Either is better than nothing," he added.

One dose of vaccine should be enough for adults and older children, whether it's a shot or a spray. However, two doses probably will be needed for children younger than 10, CDC officials said.

I wish

Submitted by Habit4ming on Fri, 09/18/2009 - 20:20.

they would've named the 21 states; anyway, I'm in PA, I've been sick (and very cranky) since Wednesday with PROBABLY the swine flu; I have all the symptoms of flu--this is mid-September and not the normal flu season.
I feel worse today than I did Wednesday. As a matter of fact, even though it's only 9:15 PM, I am going to try to go to bed...
BTW, I was around in "the 40's-50's" (like they talked about in the video)

Thanks for posting the update...

This IS scary. Hope they don't try it on a large scale, like a fire hose, or something.

What this vaccine is going to do is create a population full of mentally unstable, i mean completely whacked out human beings that will need much more medication.
