"Under the International Health Regulations, WHO guidelines have a binding character on all of WHOs 194 signatory countries in the event of a pandemic emergency of the kind anticipated this autumn when the second more lethal wave of the H1N1 virus which is bioengineered to resemble the Spanish flu virus emerges.
In short: WHO has the authority to force everyone in those 194 countries to take a vaccine this fall at gunpoint, impose quarantines and restrict travel."
When the Swine Flu was first announced, surgical masks flew off the shelves here. I understand there is a mask we can buy at Home Depot that is even better than the surgical masks.
