      Multiple studies link #flu #vaccination to increased risk of #COVID. One analysis found that European countries with the highest COVID-19 death rates had high rates of flu vaccination — at least 50% — among the #elderly. @mercola #TheDefenderhttps://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/can-flu-vaccine-increase-covid-risk/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=defender …

      No, as most things by this antivaccine organization - whose main mission appears to be to “defend” children from not dying from diphtheria and other #vaccines preventable diseases - this is untrue.https://www.google.com/amp/s/vaxopedia.org/2020/10/18/association-between-covid-19-deaths-and-flu-vaccination-rates/amp/ …

      They may have a point. This paper shows 36% increase to coronaviruses (pre 19) from flu vac. Research by http://bandim.org  shows -ve & sex differential NSEs from inactivated vacs, esp DTP. @StabellBennhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264410X19313647 …

      This paper is before COVID-19, and found, generally, no viral interference with the vaccines. It has some specific results both ways, almost certainly because the numbers were small, but it in no way shows flu vaccines increase risks of COVID.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/03/31/coronavirus-viral-interference/ …

      The claim that it does is an antivaccine misrepresentation of the paper, and I hope you won’t help spread it. The organization behind the study also called it out.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/03/31/coronavirus-viral-interference/ …

      I have heard immunologists discuss them in conferences in the U.S.. And explain why they - and most experts, including the WHO committees - disagree with the Aaby group on this.

      Beware the trap of accepting one group’s views as gospel. This is the kind of thing that needs independent replication. And Aaby’s group work isn’t even about COVID-19 or influenza.

      He’s cherry picking, for sure.

          It's always strange that if you quote a +ve vaccine NSE everybody except the antivaxxers agrees, but quote a -ve one and suddenly you're a cherry picker. I quoted only one good study & said "they MAY have a point". Flu vac NSEs in the presence of Covid are as yet undetermined!

          It’s not strange. It’s a question of data. Independent data shows preventing measles, for example, has positive general effects. On DTP, the evidence is from one group - and mostly based on a small, 30 year old dataset in a fast changing region.
