NON INLFUENZIAMOCI
As every year the winter cold is accompanied by flu.
Punctually virus from cryptic names and more or less aggressive become the subject of discussions and widespread fears. Viruses that mutate, virus "jumping" from one host to another, the viruses that cause pandemics, viruses resistant to vaccines ... there is a lot of confusion in the information we receive from the media and consequently a great need for clarity.
When, for example, a virus causes a pandemic? And as our involving wrong facilitate the spread of disease?
How to defend against threats as small as effective? Is it a coincidence that the peak of influenza occur in this season? And the vaccines are effective for you or is just because of business by multinational pharmaceutical companies? There are side effects to vaccines?
These and other questions you can find an answer
