That brings us to this year’s dreaded flu shot. Yes, the influenza vaccine is back and more brutally dangerous than ever. Want to catch the flu? Want to be MORE susceptible to the flu? Just get the new jab and you’re all set.
The Cleveland Clinic’s research, one of the largest of its kind, followed doctors, nurses, and medical staff—groups often mandated to receive flu shots. The results were stark:
- 27% increased flu risk among vaccinated employees (Hazard Ratio: 1.27; 95% C.I., 1.07–1.51; P = 0.007).
- Negative vaccine effectiveness of 26.9%, meaning the shot may have worsened outcomes.
- Nearly 99% of cases were influenza A, suggesting a critical strain mismatch—a recurring issue with flu vaccines.
Shocking study finds flu jab linked to increased influenza risk, raising alarm in medical community
A groundbreaking study from the Cleveland Clinic has cast serious doubt on the effectiveness of the annual flu shot, revealing that vaccinated individuals were more likely to contract influenza than those who skipped vaccination. The research, which tracked over 53,000 healthcare workers during the 2024-2025 flu season, found a 27% higher risk of infection among vaccinated individuals—a finding that contradicts decades of public health messaging. With the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) already acknowledging historically low vaccine effectiveness, this study intensifies concerns over the reliability of mass immunization campaigns.
The study concluded: “Influenza vaccination of working-aged adults was associated with a higher risk of influenza ... suggesting the vaccine has not been effective this season.” Medical professionals and epidemiologists voiced alarm. Dr. Clayton J. Baker called the study a "wake-up call," stating it "strongly suggests the shot was outright harmful."
Nicolas Hulscher, an epidemiologist, was blunter: “This reveals the complete failure of annual flu vaccines. Americans are tired of toxin-loaded injectable products that backfire.”
The role of thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative in many flu shots, also drew scrutiny. Dr. Karl Jablonowski noted its potential to weaken immune responses, citing a 2001 Institute of Medicine report linking it to neurodevelopmental risks. The findings challenge the mandatory flu shot policies at hospitals like Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Meryl Nass highlighted that flu vaccines are not rigorously tested for efficacy pre-approval: “Negative efficacy is possible.”
James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D., proposed the shots might suppress natural immunity, leaving recipients vulnerable. With 82% of participants vaccinated, the study’s large-scale, real-world design makes its conclusions hard to dismiss. As trust in flu vaccines erodes, holistic alternatives—like vitamin D, zinc, exercise, and stress reduction—gain traction. Unlike this year’s shot, these methods carry no risk of increasing infection.
Public health officials now face a pivotal question: If vaccines can worsen outcomes, is it time to abandon one-size-fits-all flu strategies? For now, the Cleveland Clinic study stands as a critical reminder: Science must prioritize safety over dogma.
