No. Fucking. Way. Here's a secret they censor by omission (((for some reason))). 1) All influenza viruses are RNA viruses 2) RNA viral replication is slowed to a standstill if you can get Zinc into your cells 3) Your cells don't absorb much Zinc without a Zinc ionophore (which lets the Zinc ions travel past the cell wall). 4) If you take Zinc and a Zinc Ionophore (the easiest one is Quercetin, which can easily be bought at health food stores) you can stop Influenza, most colds, and all SARS-CoV-2 viruses dead in their tracks. All you have to do? When you feel ANY flu-like symptoms, take Zinc and Quercetin immediately, then take it daily until the symptoms go away. You will literally never get the flu again, it's that powerful. You can also stop 90% of colds this way. If you are very old and your immune system sucks, it's still a great idea, because it gives your immune system a fighting chance. The trick is you have to take the Zinc and Quercetin **very early on**. You have to catch it early before the virus multiplies and overwhelms your immune system. Taking it early slows the replication rate to a crawl and lets your immune system wipe it out before you get sick. Whenever you think feel something coming on, even if it's a maybe, take a Zinc and Quercetin. I've done this for years and I can't tell you the last time I had the flu or a cold. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2973827/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8250578/ https://gilbertlab.com/neutraceuticals/quercetin/antiviral-effects-of-quercetin-zinc-ionophore/
