Jan 20, 2010, John Stossel on Swine Flu HysteriaH1N1 swine flu, the "pandemic of the century", turned out to be a dud. The 30,000-90,000 deaths that U.S. citizens were told to expect never occurred. Instead, we saw many fewer deaths than during a normal flu season. Read John Stossel's (You've seen John on TV) comments on the H1N1 pandemic flu. Jan 11, 2010, H1N1 Scandal of the Century?Dr Wodarg, head of health at the Council of Europe, accused the makers of flu drugs and vaccines of influencing the World Health Organization's decision to declare a pandemic. Wodarg labeled the H1N1 swine flu virus as 'one of the greatest medical scandals of the century'. Countries around the world, already struggling with weak economies, spent huge amounts of money to prevent and fight the H1N1 pandemic. In Great Britain alone, the government officials were told to expect 65,000 deaths. They responded by preparing for mass graves and vaccinated thousands - against a mild virus. Drug companies made millions of dollars, and, only now, are we discovering the intricate web (and conflicts of interest) between WHO members, scientists and government leaders. Wodarg provides names and details, and he has started an investigation into the relationships and events. Dec 31, 2009, WHO to be Investigated for Pandemic ScamAn inquiry into the World Health organization, its associated scientists and the pharmaceutical companies will begin in just days, in January 2010, by the Council of Europe member states.
The Parliamentary inquiry will consider whether there was a falsified pandemic and who (scientists, drug manufacturers and WHO leaders) benefited from the declaration of a pandemic. In addition, millions of people were exposed unnecessarily to the risk of untested vaccines to protect them from a mild flu strain. Nov 24, 2009, Drug Resistant MRSA Has Risen Dramatically in U.S.MRSA, a deadly drug resistant bacteria formerly acquired only in hospitals, in on the rise. No longer only seen in hospitals, it is now being found circulating in communities, including schools. Cases of MRSA have risen 90% since 1999. MRSA, (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is one of the secondary infections that H1N1 patients have acquired. As such, in some cases, the cause of death for an H1N1 patient is not actually the flu virus—it is MRSA! Nov 24, 2009, Had H1N1? You May Have Pandemic Flu Protection!If you have bee infected with H1N1 Swine Flu, you may have natural protection against the pandemic flu virus. People who have had repeated flu virus infections or flu vaccines in the past, may also have protection. Because of this, Alessandro Sette, director of the Center for Infectious Disease at California's La Jolla Institute said that the H1N1 flu virus may be less severe than originally thought. Nov 24, 2009, H1N1 Vaccine Withdrawn in CanadaGlaxoSmithKline has warned Canadian medical authorities that one batch of its H1N1 vaccine can trigger dangerous allergic reactions or death. The swine flu vaccine in question has been withdrawn from use after it produced severe edema (swelling) in one child's face and other serious reactions in the hearts and lungs of 35 other patients. In addition, 200 other people who were vaccinated—died. There were 172,000 doses of the vaccine distributed. The number who actually received the vaccine is not known. Nov 18, 2009, Another Physician Warns of Swine Flu Vaccine DangersStill one more physician, Dr. Marvin Matlock of Fresno, California, has warned of swine flu vaccine dangers. Dr. Matlock, an internal medicine specialist, has decided NOT to give the H1N1 vaccine to his patients. Why? Because, after doing research on the swine flu vaccines, he has determined that the risk of getting vaccinated is far greater than the risk of getting the H1N1 swine flu. Dr. Matlock cites the use of squalene and thimerosol as vaccine ingredients that pose a risk of acquiring serious disorders like fibromyalgia, lupus and multiple sclerosis.

Oct 29, 2009, Growing Number of Doctors and Scientists Condemn H1N1 VaccineMore and more doctors and scientists are going public with their condemnation of the H1N1 swine flu vaccine.

Oct 29, 2009, Government Propaganda Blitz Opposed by NJ GroupThe New Jersey Cooalition for Vaccination Choice has come out publicly to oppose the new U.S. government scare campaign being used to frighten the U.S. population. The group sites gross distortions of reports on hospitalizations and deaths, media reporting of false statistics, and poor science, at best, in determining the efficacy and safety of the vaccines. Oct 28, 2009, Doctor Mercola Questions Obama National Health EmergencyDoctor Mercola and Barbara Loe Fisher question the truth of the swine flu facts used and the need for a National State of Emergency.

Oct 28, 2009, N95 Mask | Respirator Face Masks | N95 Face MaskThe N95 mask is recommended by the CDC for many pandemic flu situations, but they are not always appropriate. An N95 face mask is a respirator face mask and is more efficient than an ordinary face ma Permalink -- click for full blog post "N95 Mask | Respirator Face Masks | N95 Face Mask " Oct 28, 2009, President Obamas Children will NOT Be Vaccinated!With the push for quick vaccination of the public against H1N1 Swine Flu and the public declaration of a State of Emergency Friday evening, one would think that the president's children would be first in line to be protected from the Pandemic Swine Flu. The public has been assured that the swine flu vaccine is safe. However, the presidents girls will NOT be vaccinated. Why not? Oct 28, 2009, H1N1 Gives Natural ProtectionIn a new study, just published in the journal, Vaccine, scientists revealed that H1N1 Swine Flu infection has a benefit—protection against H5N1 Bird Flu. H5N1 Bird Flu, while not easily spread, does have a whopping 60% death rate, so it is not a virus to take lightly. NONE of the pigs in the study, who were infected with H1N1, got the Bird Flu virus. One could expect the same to be true for humans, as pigs are a reliable model. This is good news for people who live in countries where H5N1 has become endemic, or widespread in the bird population. Oct 25, 2009, President Obama Declares State of EmergencyPresident Obama has declared a state of emergency in the U.S. because of swine flu, even as information from non-government sources say that cases of TRUE swine flu are minimal.

Permalink -- click for full blog post "Swine Flu Vaccine | H1N1 Vaccine | Influenza Vaccine " Oct 9, 2009, Guess How Many Swine Flu CasesIf you do, you'll be guessing right along with government officials, the CDC, and the WHO (World Health Organization). In July the WHO told everyone to stop counting. Since then, every country is using different statistics, and the data gathering has been sporadic, at best. So, if you hear news stories on the evening news that tell you how bad the swine flu is getting, think about it... Are they just guessing? Oct 9, 2009, Canada Not Distributing H1N1Vaccine YetCanada will not be giving H1N1 swine flu shots until November. For several reasons:
On the other hand, the U.S., China and Australia have started giving swine flu H1N1 vaccines to their citizens – even though clinical-trial results are not yet in...

She also appeared on CBS's The Early Show where she said that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the President's Advisory Committee on Immunizations have identified four target populations:
Ms. Sebelius urged Americans to get their swine flu vaccinations, saying that about 600 people in the U.S. have died so far. While every single person is important, the number of deaths used by Ms. Sebelius, is a far cry from the estimated figure of 37,000 annual deaths from seasonal flu – the number that the U.S. government was using last spring!
