"Readers in Mexico have been emailing the BBC describing the sense of fear gripping the country as a result of a flu virus outbreak, which has so far claimed up to 60 lives...Read a selection of BBC readers' comments below. "I work as a resident doctor in one of the biggest hospitals in Mexico City and sadly, the situation is far from "under control". As a doctor, I realise that the media does not report the truth. Authorities distributed vaccines among all the medical personnel with no results, because two of my partners who worked in this hospital (interns) were killed by this new virus in less than six days even though they were vaccinated as all of us were."
Even though they were vaccinated or because they were vaccinated? This needs investigating.
There's a supposed new mutated strain - combining human, swine, and avian strands - no one has ever seen or heard of before and they have an experimental vaccine already? Which cartel had a vaccine for a mutated strain never seen before? And those vaccinated died? Something doesn't smell right here.
How could there POSSIBLY have been time to conduct proper scientific tests on an experimental vaccine for a mutated strain of swine-human-avian hybrid influenza never seen before???
Thank you. These are scary times for all of us. We can bury our heads under the pillow or we can look these boogerbears straight in the eye. We are not the dumb sheep they think we are.
because its possible the “new strain” is a screw up that occurred during a vaccine test that was intended to develop a vaccine effective against multi flu strains, an dinstaed combined strains of live and perhaps genetically altered flus
remember in the winter a lab in Austria “accidentally” sent live bird flu-contaminated vaccine to a lab in Eastern Europe, which found out when the test animals died
