Okay, here we go folks. School has started in my state, there are already H1N1 cases involving teachers and students. They are talking about vaccinating everyone in the entire county, and it didn't sound voluntary. This is crap, something is not right about this. No other nation was destroyed but for some reason "America is in for it" ... Why is that?
WHO warns time running out for governments to prepare for dramatic spread of virus, predicting number of cases could double every few days
England seems to be surviving just fine without martial law. Ditto South America which is going through its winter flu season.
Thanks for the tips- I have a stock of NAC, also resveratrol and check out Vitamin D3 (medgadose)
Good medicine.
.357Sig very good write-ups too.
I have never taken vitamins, and advise all my clients never to take them, especially now that they are almost all made in China. People can get all the nutrition they need from good food and a good digestion, and herbs.
First of all, there is no licensed vaccine and may not be one.
Secondly, there WILL be a very large number of cases. Cases may very well double every few days.
With an illness this mild - so what?
That’s what the CDC wants people to think. They’ve tossed around one and two million cases. But until seroprevalence studies have been done (and the results made public), no one will know.
The CDC got their million plus numbers from phone calls during allergy season, asking if people had congestion, watery eyes, sore throats, etc. And then extrapolated that number. Real scientific, yup.
Do you know where the CDC gets their 36K flu deaths a year number? Which just started being repeated in 2003? No?
They got it from statistical modelling, winter deaths compared to summer deaths. The actual figures of flu fatalies given by the CDC to the American Lung Association range from 800 odd to 1300 odd for the last ten or so years.
The 36K number is invented out of whole cloth. And most of the seasonal flu deaths - 90 to 95% - are the elderly.
Swine flu is killing people under 50.
The AVERAGE number of flu deaths per year 1976-1999 was 34500.
Since H1N1 is milder than normal flu, but it spreads rapidly and no one is immune, 30-50K deaths this Fall and Winter is a very reasonable estimate.
Yup. It seems to work, sorta.
What the CFR will turn out to be will only be known after the fact. Certainly not yet.
Greetings, swarthyguy!
I’d be interested in the conversation, too. Freepmail if need be. Pandemic is one of my special interests.
How would WHO know the cases are doubling every day? They stopped collecting the numbers a month ago.
It’s all fear and stupidity. It’s just the flu.
Did you read my explanation of how the CDC got the 36K number? Whole cloth, and all that?
If you actually think that swine flu aka H1N1 is milder or even as mild as seasonal flu, you haven’t been reading enough, or perhaps just CDC press releases. Try reading the PFI forum, it’s the best flu website.

I can vouch for that site. There are many learned people there including doctors and scientists.
They can stick me once I’m dead already. I’m not taking this poison crap.
Catching your reply to sfimom - did the man you talked to say why the public message is “don’t worry be happy, it’s mild mild mild”? Seems pretty clear that the internals are not being hinted at to the general public.
>>”People can get all the nutrition they need from good food and a good digestion, and herbs.”<<
Correct! Be sure to add wild American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium) to your diet.
Sure wouldn't want young children to HAVE to take it.
Don’t wait until the last minute. They might not ask your permission to give the shot. They probably won’t if they are running a panic “authority” on this thing. Home schooling is fun although a lot of work. You also have to prepare for it. So get crackin’ now!
