We blundered over swine flu, admit health chiefs
Dailymail UK ^ | 13th April 2010 | Mail Foreign Service

Global health chiefs have finally admitted that they may have overreacted to the swine flu 'pandemic' - landing governments with millions of unused vaccines. The World Health Organisation has conceded that it may have been guilty of failing to communicate 'uncertainties' about how virulent the new virus was.

Critics say the UN agency was too quick to designate the influenza a pandemic in June after it spread from Mexico. Keiji Fukuda, its top influenza expert, yesterday admitted a six-phase system for declaring this was confusing and the bug was not actually as deadly as bird flu. 'The reality is there is a huge amount of uncertainty (in a pandemic),' he said. 'I think we did not convey the uncertainty. That was interpreted by many as a non-transparent process.' He admitted the scale may be flawed as it takes into account the geographic spread of a virus but not its severity.

Just read up on Project 201 and Bill Gates’ involvement with all this crap. Please everyone help me to draw the lines together. Scary stuff for sure.

This crap may be the same. What world wise have died now? Look how many die each year world wide from the regular ole flu’s. That is more deadly than this crap and we didn’t/don’t go nuts like we have over this crap. Funny how all the nations are suddenly clamping down on people. No large gatherings, no sports, old folks stay home, movies, restaurants, theaters, etc., all closed. We have never done this for normal colds or flu’s, which are more deadly than this corona crap. Why the shut downs, crack downs, on this stuff. Colleges, high schools all closed. No body going to work. I guess we can call this crap: THE DAY THE EARTH WAS SHUT DOWN AND THE GOVERNMENTS TOOK OVER ALL LIFE!!!!! Sounds like a take over by the global’s to me.

You just read an article from 2010.

Now some REAL statistics from 2020:

CDC estimates* that, from October 1, 2019, through March 7, 2020, there have been:

36,000,000 – 51,000,000 flu illnesses

17,000,000 – 24,000,000 flu medical visits

370,000 – 670,000 flu hospitalizations

22,000 – 55,000 flu deaths

And how about the 2018 flu season in the U.S.

CDC: 80,000 people died of flu last winter in U.S., highest death toll in 40 years.

It may be nothing more than the Good Lord's way of "thinning the herd."

The younger generation of doctors don’t have to be concerned with the restraints of Western medical ethics or even mature socialization. The stories I could tell... I don’t let them near me anymore.

Healthcare workers are already forcefully vaccinated, for money’s sake. Everyday Americans are next.

I had the flu in 2000. Horrible, I was sick for over a week and more than a month with Post Influenza Syndrome. A constant cough at night that kept me from sleeping. I never had the vaccine before that. I’ve taken the vaccine every year since with no flu. YMMV.

Thanks for your input.

The research you did found out about the action in 4-09 but no mention of how many had died up until then, ‘not so many, maybe 0?’

Seems unlikely it would have been zero.

If that flu was widespread at that time with no deaths, good for the HHS.

After reading more of the thread, I see that my post was incorrect in some ways.

The info I read up thread showed me some facts, but who can trust anything the government says.

I hope you are well.

“Healthcare workers are already forcefully vaccinated..”

From what I have heard, there is no vaccine for Wuhan virus yet.

Closest anyone is is Israel, 3 months maybe.

Not using the virus, dead or alive, but a manufactured clone or something like that.

I think there is a thread about it.

Doing well so far. Thanks. I’ve been living life normally. Not hiding at home. Having experienced Both systems, I’d say the VA works better than IHS.

I remember 2009 when they shut down the 2009 NCAA tournament and every restaurant and bar because 22 million people Were infected with the swine flu and 9000 Americans died. Do I really need a sarcasm tag here?<\sarcasm>
