1. Pneumococcal vaccine
Pertussis, which is a highly infectious respiratory illness attributed to the bacteria Bordetella pertussis, is known to be transmitted from adults to children. On the other hand, pneumococcus, the bacteria behind meningitis, encephalitis, and pneumonia, can be easily passed from children to adults and seniors.
When children have this bacteria, they generally get mild infections, such as ear infections, but when older adults have it, there is a big problem since pneumococcus causes pneumonia, which is a leading cause of death among seniors. What is worse is that the older you are, the higher the risk.
This is why the pneumococcal vaccine is one of the vaccines every senior should get if they want to protect themselves. According to the CDC, those aged 75 to 84 are three times more likely to die from pneumonia than those aged 65 to 74. When compared with the 65-74 demographic, the risk for people aged 85 and older is more than ten times higher.

The so-called vaccines are hit and mostly miss! They are also dangerous for lots of people. Beware of the chances you take in having them administered!
I would like to recieve health advice, I’m a liver transplant recipient since 2004
A question for you is it just the tdap vaccine that needs to be updated every ten years? I get the flu vaccine & if if the Covid is updated I get that. I also received the RSV vaccine but do other vaccines need to be updated is my concern? Thank you in Advance!
I’m in my 75th year of life and I was exposed to and truly believed in early preventive vaccines but the COVID and the money hungry big pharma lost me with the rush to market crap they dished out. Now I’m very Leary. How much more studies have they conducted and how safe is the Covid vaccines are now?
You missed RSV
Very important
Thank you
Please stop promoting ‘vaccines’ as the 100% protection for the older population. Have you ever posted an article with the vaccine related injuries/deaths, or at the very least, the serious side effects? Please respond with the article in case I just can’t find it.

Thank you.
