Vaccine pushers wildly exaggerate flu deaths to scare population into compliance

Every year around this time, we begin seeing and hearing the warnings urging us to receive our annual flu shots. Many of us fall for the scare tactics and line up to get our dose of the vaccine, because the flu is deadly and kills tens of thousands of people every year, right?
Wrong.
If you haven’t already succumbed to the propaganda, you may want to think twice about getting the yearly injection. There are several good reasons to avoid ever getting a flu vaccination, even if you are in one of the high-risk groups, such as those over the age of 65.
First of all, the figures that we commonly read or hear are grossly exaggerated — the mainstream media often cites the number of flu deaths to be as high as 36,000 per year, but there is no real evidence that this is actually the case.
In fact, the National Vital Statistics System estimates the number of yearly flu deaths in the U.S. to be around 500. And even that number may be too high, according to the American Journal of Public Health and The BMJ. Many of the deaths attributed to the flu may be due to other causes, such as rhinovirus.
Lawrence Solomon wrote in The Huffington Post:
Only about 15-20 per cent of people who come down with flu-like symptoms have the influenza virus — the other 80-85 per cent actually caught rhinovirus or other germs that are indistinguishable from the true flu without laboratory tests, which are rarely done.
