"Dr. Klenner decided to give massive doses of vitamin C to all 60 patients. None of them developed paralysis! A year later, in my final year at The Harvard Medical School, I developed the same disease. I was surrounded by distinguished professors, yet ironically all they were able to offer was to watch my paralysis worsen day by day.

This case made newspaper headlines, but the medical profession, MOH, and TV anchors still have not absorbed this history. So children and elderly people with deficient immune systems are dying needlessly.

So I must repeat part of a column I’ve written before. That your life may be dependent on a healthy immune system to survive influenza. This means always having a high reservoir of vitamin C in your blood at all times. The only way to achieve this is by routinely taking a minimum of 2,000 milligrams of vitamin C twice a day. Then, increase the dose to bowel tolerance if flu symptoms strike.

"The pet-shop mice are about to get new room-mates. Each one will bunk with a group of shiny black lab mice, sharing food, water, bedding and, most importantly, pathogens. Until now, the lab mice have been kept in a squeaky clean environment, free from most diseases, so some will fall ill and die. The rest will develop more robust immune systems, more like those of wild mice—and, arguably, humans."

Bodybuilder dies of flu in 3 days.
"Kyler Baughman, from Latrobe, had gone home for the holidays with “a snotty nose,” his mother recalled in an interview earlier this week with WPXI. “We saw him the 23rd for our family Christmas get-together and we noticed he wasn’t feeling well,” Beverly Baughman told the news station."
"Soon after, on Dec. 28, Kyler died of “organ failure due to septic shock caused by influenza,” his mother told WPXI."
