I Have To Wonder Just How Much Psoriasis Is Also Assisted In Its Cause, By Flu Vaccines?

A MyPsoriasisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Reason I thought this way was because there is no genetic history in any of my family back 5 generations (family genealogist), and despite being told it was genetic, I can not find a single person with this dysfunction. So, I decided that I'd go back further in my own history from 2013 when I was diagnosed, although P did show up in 2010. I had been to Asia 3 times between 2009 & 2010 and thought maybe I may have picked up something from the hotel showers. Nope

Your doctor would have recommended annual influenza jabs because your immune system is too weak to fight it off naturally. Plus if you are on biologics, it switches off parts of your immune system required to fight other diseases. I'm really glad your feet have healed, the photo looks so painful. I get all jabs available and one was a bacterial pneumonia jab that lasts for 5 years! A blessing because I got double pneumonia when I started on biologics. We are in our infancy when it comes to mRNA vaccines, but they certainly do work. We can only study people who have long term reactions to the vaccine and try to work out why. But the whole world is working on an answer, so keep an open mind ❤️

Yes Jill, I have a very open mind...always have had. I have not had the flu since 2018 and all without the flu shot. What works for some, doesn't necessarily mean it works for all....just like children in school; not all learn the same way.
I am not anti vax...I do get the pneumonia jab every 5 years and have never had pneumonia in my life....doesn't mean I won't.
I have great respect for all the medics and scientists who do this remarkable work in figuring out how chemicals etc., work and how people can manipulate them with the intention of doing good in the world.
