Jeffrey P Utz ... I have seen several of you vaccination shills try to
claim that Tamiflu is not a drug nor a vaccine. Some of these
disinformation statements are below.

However in reading the definitions of "drugs" and "vaccine" ...
Tamiflu certainly fits into both overlapping defintions.

It's a tad frightening that someone who is unable to discern the
difference between a vaccine and a drug attempts to write with such
authority. It certainly makes one wonder about the credentials of the
author of the article doesn't it!

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/drug
1. Pharmacology. a chemical substance used in the treatment,
cure, prevention, or diagnosis of disease or used to otherwise enhance
physical or mental well-being.
2. (in federal law)
a. any substance recognized in the official pharmacopoeia or
formulary of the nation.
b. any substance intended for use in the diagnosis, cure,
mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease in humans or other
animals.
c. any article, other than food, intended to affect the structure
or any function of the body of humans or other animals.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/vaccine
1. any preparation used as a preventive inoculation to confer
immunity against a specific disease, usually employing an innocuous
form of the disease agent, as killed or weakened bacteria or viruses,
to stimulate antibody production.

I am not a shill for anyone. I speak only for myself. I get no
compensation from any drug company.

This shows your ignorance of biology, medicine, vaccines and
immunology.

A key part of the definition of vaccine that *you* cited is that it
employs an innocuous form of the disease agent, in this case the
influenza virus. Oseltamivir phosphate is the generic name of Tamiflu.
It doesn't contain any influenza virus particles at all. It doesn't
stimulate anitbody production, either, as *your* definition of vaccine
includes.

So, no, Tamiflu is not a vaccine. It doesn't stimulate antibody
production nor is it an innocuous form of the disease agent.

Again, I suggest you get a clue, if you can.
