"This season is looking particularly bad because the predominant strain, H3N2, is not covered by the current flu vaccine and tends to have more severe symptoms, Smith said. H3N2 accounted for the majority of the strains tested by the CDC so far this season, according to a health advisory issued in early December.More government failure. This is how the lack of prices in socialism produces a counterproductive pseudo-service.
The H3N2 flu strain isn't uncommon; it's just not what was predicted when the flu vaccine was created, Smith said. What's included in the U.S. vaccine is determined each year by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration based on recommendations from the World Health Organization. It takes about six months to produce, according to the CDC."
"Still, getting a flu shot is the number one way to protect yourself against getting the flu, Smith said. And even though this year's shot doesn't include protection against H3N2, it will protect against other strains and also cause your body to create antibodies that will provide some protection, according to the CDC."This is baloney. It will make more people sick.
The government plans to build a genome database of babies, and some parents are allowing it.
