Why do #COVID & #flu hit older adults harder? 👉 It’s not just weaker immunity — aging lung tissue actively drives excessive inflammation. ➡️ Key mechanism: Aging lung fibroblasts trigger NF-κB–mediated “inflammaging”, recruiting dysfunctional immune cells. 👉 The problem isrreaction. ➡️ Researchers identified GZMK+ T cells in inflamed lung clusters— seen in severe COVID 👉 These cells fail to control infection but still damage lungs. ➡️ Striking finding: Young lungs engineered with aging signals behaved like “old lungs” under infection 👉 Severe disease is driven by tissue biology, not just age. 1/

Remember all that panicking about flu just before Christmas and all the doom mongering stories about how it was going to be the worst flu season ever and everybody should get the jab. Gone very quiet hasn't it. #flu #jabs

2. Some good news: #Flu season is kinda over. I say kinda coz there's still flu around. But when the percentage of medical visits that are for flu-like illness falls below 3.1% — and it did last week — we're considered to be out of flu season. At this point, flu B is causing

1. A #flu update: #CDC has learned of 8 more pediatric flu deaths, bringing this season's total to 123. That number will continue to rise; deaths are often reported on a delay. Case in point: 2024-25's peds death total rose by 1 last week with a death from Feb '25 just reported.

The "Super-K" flu strain (subclade K) is driving an unusually early and deadly season. With 60+ deaths reported in Australia and cases rising globally, experts warn its mutations allow it to evade current vaccines. Stay alert for sudden high fevers! 🌡️�� #SuperK #Flu #HealthNewWy

It’s important to remember medicine is a business and vaccines are a steady income generator. #flu #vaccine

Reminder: Cleveland Clinic study... Vaccination makes you more likely to get the flu, not less likely.

Why do "public #health" #bureaucrats keep pushing #flu shots on #children? Even their FAVORED studies suggest #influenza "#vaccines" (they're not vaccines, they DO NOT provide #immunity) are a terrible bet. One child experienced nephrotic syndrome 13 days after the second vaccine dose; the child subsequently developed anaphylactic shock and venous thrombosis as iatrogenic events that occurred during hospitalization. Unfortunately, the evidence for flu jabs is far weaker than parents — and physicians — realize. In January 2023, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci (yes, THAT Dr. Anthony S. Fauci) wrote they probably shouldn’t be licensed. No exaggeration. alexberenson.substack.com/p/why-do-publi…
