Original Note:
False and misleading claims. Flu vaccines are not useless. Influenza causes 9.4 million–41 million illnesses, 100,000–710,000 hospitalizations and 4,900 – 52,000 deaths annually. Influenza vaccines reduce flu mortality and morbidity and have a reassuring safety profile. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0264410X18309976?via%3Dihub https://www.cdc.gov/flu/vaccines-work/effectiveness-studies.htm https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/index.html
