  4. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    I personally find 1000 mg a day does well, except in cold weather it varies. Vitamins vary for every unique condition, and there's no set "prescribed" amount that seems to obsess conventionals. It's...

  5. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    It's easy to look up Vitamin C for one's self, it's not a prescribed drug, and I suggested it knowing how well it works for respiratory conditions, and for years. For that one's sake if she were...

    And, Re: "Who is this magical 4 bad flu episodes person you keep talking about? And once again, I ask you - did this person get tested for the flu, or is it an assumption that that is what it was?...

    Re: Is it "respiratory problems all your life", or is it since you were pregnant. For real, pick one story and stick with it. It's both! :) Since a child, having bronchitis. This wasn't bronchitis...

  8. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Ixchel, if someone doesn't tell your sister nurse there that getting yet another vaccine, after 4 of 5 years of flu episodes almost putting her out despite being vaccinated, she may not survive this...

  9. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    My "ivory tower"? I listened to conventional medicine for years, not questioning, assuming they're expertise, being on 4 asthma meds including steroids. I also "listened" and got the vaccine! But,...

  10. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sure you are well educated in your "science", but, reality is what speaks to me. Health has not improved in the last 50 years. It's only become more dependent on synthetic drugs that may take...

  11. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Are you speaking of children worldwide #s?. Because malnourished children can get deathly ill from a cold. Malnourished children need real food and nutrients. That's what keeps measles, the cold,...

  12. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Ok well, it supposedly "stopped the spread" of a mild childhood disease (not the plague) that we were encouraged to get, and be immune for life. It still didn't stop the 6 who were vaccinated from...

  13. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Really, the odd thing is, the vaccine is not "guaranteed" from anything too. So, I actually don't know who's "protected" there either. Of course the unvaccinated are the first to blame with "blood...

  14. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    I suppose you all remember the "Disney 20". The biggest deal of how children not vaccinated got the measles (a once mild childhood disease we all got btw). Well, it wasn't a surprise that the 15...

  15. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    What harm is the vaccine causing?...well, for one, I would think the adjuvants injected year after year, have an effect. I never questioned anything for years, (like everyone else), but, it's...

  16. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    :) "And lived to tell the tale" ...and I'm glad you did too! I asked about doctors being vaccinated only because I heard one place they weren't (not in NY). Thanks Farawyn, was just wondering. Like...

  17. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    I do have a question. I know how many places are mandating vaccines for nurses. However, I heard they're not always mandated for doctors..or are they? Just wondering your thoughts on it if they're...

  18. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Well, there's reasons I am "anti-vax". What were yours? There's reasons I like vitamins, because they work for me. I don't take them because someone told me to. I only tried them on a whim, and...

    Ok, I did go to your link there, and it said a few times "Page not found". However, here's one that may give info too: Vitamin C | University of Michigan Health System Lots of studies that seem to...

  21. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe true, but, not in my experiences with "colds" and what I had that time...head ache, fever, chills, body ache, feeling of being hit by a truck all at once. Certainly not like any other beginning...

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Of course his one experience doesn't "prove" anything to those who don't know how amazing Vitamin C is personally (as I do), but, nevertheless, I think it's worth mentioning. I've had many times the...

  23. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    :) I got asthma first as an adult, when 5 or 6 months pregnant with my first son. It wasn't too bad for years, just taking some theophyline (sp) once in a while, but, in my late 30s it progressed....

    rusti1 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Ty :) I just wanted to say, it's not measurable because it's true, everyone is different. Different diets, habits, etc. But, everyone needs vitamins. That's what's in food that the body uses for...
