In a discussion this morning with a cell biologist and medical doctor working at Johns Hopkins, my friend thought this 4-part flu combination is highly unusual and looks like it could be man-made. Especially because it has an avian strain. My doctor friend (he's Taiwanese) explained that in Asia, it's common for a avian-swine-human flu to happen naturally, but this virus first showed up in Mexico, where pigs and ducks are not usually raised together. Also, recombination of more than 2-different flu viruses is extremely rare. I'm just repeating what he said as an expert in the field. He says the CDC needs to explain if there is a possibility that we are under a bio-weapon attack. From CDC via Wikipedia: Anne Schuchat, director of CDC's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, said that the American cases were found to be made up of genetic elements from four different flu viruses -- North American swine influenza, North American avian influenza, human influenza A virus subtype H1N1, and swine influenza virus typically found in Asia and Europe.
For two cases a complete genome sequence had been obtained. She said that the virus was resistant to amantadine and rimantadine, but susceptible to oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza).[22][23][24] Preliminary genetic characterization found that the hemagglutinin (HA) gene was similar to that of swine flu viruses present in U.S. pigs since 1999, but the neuraminidase (NA) and matrix protein (M) genes resembled versions present in European swine flu isolates. Viruses with this genetic makeup had not previously been found to be circulating in humans or pigs, but there is no formal national surveillance system to determine what viruses are circulating in pigs in the U.S.[25]
The seasonal influenza strain H1N1 vaccine is thought to be unlikely to provide protection.[26]

Note: What is the tea parties were used by the other side to release something and get it into the most activist folks amongst us.
Yes.
The story line will go similar to the one from Wall Street.
The hospitals have been incomeptently run and managed, and the medical professions exploit the people.There will be salary caps for GPs and Specialists, as well as hospital administrators. Thhise dirty corrupt physicians with four houses and condos in the caymans, and off shore accounts!!!
Acorn will protest outside physicians homes, and all hospitals will have mandates by executive order to provide abortion services on demand.
Obama will then meet with the National College of Surgeons and widely publish in a presser that he will not prosecute corrupt physicians and health insurance administrators, and then he will change his mind if any surgeons or doctors get sassy.( we have to redistribute the wealth to those who have been exploited and downtrodden)
Money will be appropriated and forced on the largest health insurance plans to "bail them out" and then the Dept of Helath will demand equity shares in health insurance companies in return for bail out money.
Welcome to the exploitation of health crisis.
More billions of future tax dollars reserved for health care bail outs.
Fascism on the rise.
This sounds similar in its action.
Your scenario is chillingly plausible.
Sounds like the perfect “Reichstag” moment for the fascists in DC to pull off something cute.
