"Health authorities admit most year’s flu vaccine is only 10% effective in the first place."
"But of course, they urge you to take the vaccine anyway . Why is this year’s vaccine ineffective? Because it’s made using chicken eggs, and researchers have discovered that the flu virus—which is placed in the vaccine—mutates in chicken eggs.
Therefore, by the time a person takes the flu shot, he’s not being protected against this year’s seasonal flu virus. He’s being protected against a mutated virus that isn’t causing the flu this year.
That would mean the flu vaccine has been ineffective for decades.
The most common way that flu vaccines are made is using an egg-based manufacturing process that has been used for more than 70 years. Egg-based vaccine manufacturing is used to make both inactivated (killed) vaccine (usually called the “flu shot”) and live attenuated (weakened) vaccine (usually called the “nasal spray”)."
"The reason for influenza’s success, and why a new flu shot is required each year, has to do with that rapid mutation rate. Unlike some DNA-based viruses, influenza uses RNA to replicate. Without DNA’s built-in “proof-reading” capabilities, RNA viruses like influenza and HIV are more prone to genetic errors during replication, allowing them to mutate quickly as they move from host cell to cell.
According to a new study from scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI), the common practice of growing influenza vaccine components in chicken eggs disrupts the major antibody target site on the virus surface, rendering the flu vaccine less effective in humans."
Like all living things, influenza makes small errors—mutations—when it copies its genetic code during reproduction. But influenza lacks the ability to repair those errors, because it is an RNA virus; RNA, unlike DNA, lacks a self-correcting mechanism. As a result, influenza is not genetically stable, and is always around to attack you the next year.
